I was referring to your own post to my "DAM approval wait time" outburst.

Sorry, but I'm not putting > this past you. I no longer write articles or editorials for Debian Planet and I have never done or never will start a debate on a mailing list as a flimsy excuse for writing an article. Like you and everyone else here, I too am entitled to form an opinion of my own and be able to express them in a public forum. > > I have to ask, are you pursuing some kind of vendetta against me? > > I can't explain why else you are digging everything you know about > > me and using whatever I may have said on #debian years ago against > > me. > > All I'm doing in the post you replied to is asking the question > "What exactly do you intend to do as a debian developer?", a > question reflected in the process of your NM app. You should simply > answer it. I have answered already this question.

Thanks to the silent treatment I am receiving from the DAM and barrage of abuse directed at me from people such as yourself and others in #debian-devel I really do question if my participation in the Debian community is respected or my mere presence is welcome. That thread was just one of those moments when I have come close to just walking away from it all. > Summary, I'm not so happy with your present level of maturity and a > few of your actions as a result, but I also see you're making some > effort. You have some nerve there Jim flaunting your arrogance like that. I have tried to reply to you in a rational and polite manner, but I have come to the conclusion that no matter what I say or do, you will continue to harass me in public. You have no right to judge me and I will no longer entertain your perverted sense of enjoyment in attempting to humiliate and belittle people in public. Good day.
