Right now i have evidence of only frans joeyh and a third unamed guy where the
ones having problems. I have since then had private conversation with at least
two or three d-i team members, who said to me they didn't support Frans
actions in this.

Well, possibly, but i can say the exact same thing about Frans, and i remember
well how aba ior someone else had to silence Frans on #debian-kernel when we
where discussing this whole mess back in marsch.

Ah, so you are the unnamed third one. Anyway, i guess you also don't have any
kind of exemplar communication style, just see at how you managed the whole
Vancouver mess, and how your haughty pose in your post offended many of our
porters back then, and the huge flamewar that ensued.

I also hear regular remarks on irc about for example our DPLs position in the
java flamewar and other such subjects, and our preceding DPL was well known
for being over aggressive and insulting on both irc and email.

But, that has not stopped us from doing the work that needed to be done, and
in this aspect, Frans action which you all support are an ugly precedent to
set, and a continuing abuse of the trust set in him by the project as a whole
when he became the d-i team leader.

Hurt,

Sven Luther
