The sad truth is, that you (Sven) have made me (and others) turn away from 
wanting to contribute to d-i cause I'm sick of your whining, flames, abuse 
and whatnot.

More than once I was motivated to work on powerpc issues and the ppc-manual, 
but each time I looked into d-i I saw very disgusting and tiring arguments or 
just plain flames which you (Sven) brought up, so that usually after reading 
them I got fed up and did something else. (In the beginning I also tried to 
moderate/help/proxy whatnot, but after trying and seeing my efforts wasted by 
you, I gave up.)

Now I happily contribute to powerpc in debian-edu. (Through that I came back 
to work a bit on d-i again.)

I now have you on ignore on IRC and mark your mails automatically as read. 
This really helps to be able to concentrate and work. But as I am again now 
wasting my time again on your stupid "mission" (though only 5mins for this 
mail) I am seriously thinking about marking all mails as read which refer to 
any msgid of yours.

Sven, you hurt the powerpc port more than anybody else.


regards,
	Holger

P.S.: To be fair (or rather clear), Sven, I dont think it's 100% your fault. 
But something like 70-90%. And on the "other side" there isn't Frans only but 
most of the d-i team.

P.P.S.: I haven't read your mail completly. I read 50-200 mails from you on 
this topic already and I doubt there is anything new in it.

EOT for me.
