I know, but after awhile I feel as if I'm a second class member of the Debian community, that I'm untrusted and being stigmatised. I'm not after alau@debian.org for any status at all, only as a "thanks for helping out" and to feel accepted.. When you're up against that, you really start to wonder if it's worth it at all. > Above all, you have to remember that most people working in > Debian have the best of intentions, and that you should accept that > things don't always happen as quickly as you'd like them to. That's what I used to believe as well. But when you're being stone-walled, you start hearing many disheartening things and you don't know what to believe in anymore. With all of the politics involved around here you really don't know if someone likes getting their kicks holding grudges, especially against you. So much for "3. We Won't Hide Problems" of the Debian Social Contract.
