Do you really think snide remarks and sarcasm are improving
the atmosphere in the mailing lists? That this unending miasma of
negativity we are currently indulging in solves anything? Indeed,
the bitterness this leaves behind makes it harder for different teams
to work together, or communicate, which you seem to decry.
One of the reasons communications falter is because exchanges
like this mean that people are no longer just friends who have
gotten together to create Debian; and exchanging emails with someone
who waxed sarcastic at your expense is not fun, and gets shelved in
and something fun gets done instead.
