My axe is the same one I often have in Technical Committee
discussions. It is the axe of challenging the unaccountable power
exercised by despotic Debian package maintainers, within the fiefdoms
of their countless petty autocracies.
My axe is the axe that would chop aside the barriers erected by those
who dislike other people's software, and who use their position to
obstruct and to destroy. My axe is the axe that would clear the path
for collaboration.
My axe is the axe of freedom for Debian's users and contributors.
Ian.
