Re: Statement regarding Richard Stallman's readmission to the FSF board

Hi,

Please descalate, it is an emergency. The RMS debate is very difficult 
for many people I guess, painful or, at least, energy consumer. It often 
results to ghoughts about the compliance of some mails with the code of 
conduct. But those 2 mails are clearly not acceptable from the formal 
point of view. You cannot let yourself dominate by your badest feelings, 
injuring each other etc. I am sure that is completely out of the code of 
conduct. Be respectful, avoiding to say words such as "shit" "fuck" 
"fascist", and please try staying moderated. Debian will be a welcoming 
community if anyone can express his opinons politely and others reply 
politely, with respect, even if he disagrees. So really, descalte! If 
the thread is so abrasive, just don't reply, ignore, I am sure it will 
not change your daily life in your team or in the project. Or wait some 
hours before doing it. But again, such wordings are unacceptable, 
regardless the topic itself and the ideas. Keep in mind you speak 
publicly and your mails stay in archives forever.

Thanks in advance

Regards
