The wiki page was not intended as "my position", but rather a general
sumary of the underlying problems leading to this conflict between Sven
and me and/or between yaird maintainance and linux-2.6 needs.

I agree that anonymity is possible on our wiki, but since both Sven and
I use registered accounts our commits should be easy to tell apart[1].

Do you want the technical aspects of this conflict in purely my words?
I wrote solely all initial editions of the earlier mentioned wiki page
- do you want me to copy those[2] to an email and GPG-sign it for
confidence?

I hesitate to do so, as I do not claim to understand the underlying
problems fully, and have requested the help of others - including Sven,
who have already contributed[3] to the wiki page.


Or do you want my view on more personal aspects of this conflict too?

I hesitate to do so, as I believe this is irrelevant for the technical
committee (and irrelevant for Debian in general as well).
