The only thing you could say I disagreed with was
Daniel's removal of the information on how to put a USB image on a

It was not a mistake. You were told it was not.
I don't think I was.
You acted against the
wishes of this project. If that's not a clear expression of your
dissent, I don't know what is.
If I acted against the wishes of the Debian Live project, that was
unknowingly. In any case, what I did was not an expression of anything,
it was simply, again, a workaround for the problem.
I don't see how I would have thwarted anyone's efforts. I simply
restored information. If the effort was to move that information, I was
not preventing in any way anyone to properly move it again.
All information in that section of the wiki was our responsibility to
look after. Your unwelcome restoration of the information to the wrong
location, repeatedly, was indeed thwarting us.
If it was, I still do not see how.
Like a child who insists
on making her works of art on the wall instead of her notebook, you
consumed an unreasonable amount of our time to deal with your actions.
I fail to see what time was needed to deal with my actions. I clearly
stated in http://lists.debian.org/debian-live/2011/02/msg00167.html that
I would take care of removing the page myself, and simply asked to be
told when the issue would be properly solved.
This very thread is a further waste of my time. Your minor bug filing
notwithstanding, your net contribution to improving our documentation so
far has been negative.
I disagree.
Sure, but filing a bug report by itself does not solve a problem.
That may be, but unilaterally acting against the wishes of a project,
modifying a site which they have responsibility for when you've been
told not to does not solve a problem either.
Why do you think so?
It makes one.
Which one?
No, I didn't mean to say that anyone had a fixation on the wiki, but if
you think someone did, it must not be me, nor you. It's unfortunate that
you consider I worked against you. I worked for users, and
I would like to be told if that work happened to be detrimental to the
work of any other contributor.
What? How can you consider yourself *not* to have been told after all
this?
Well, even after rereading the relevant threads, I can't see how my work
would have been detrimental to the work of others. You *did* just claim
that I was "deliberately thwarting [y]our efforts", but that sounds like
nothing more than judging on mere presumed intent. Without foundation,
that doesn't tell me how my work would have been detrimental.
