This is a good point for all wanna-bees. Debian is a big project that
covers the world. Not all of the developers will see eye-to-eye on any
issue. If a person takes offense and has a tantrum (call it a flamewar
if you prefer ;-) because their viewpoint is not shared, this distracts
people from accomplishing something. The best DDs seem to keep working
regardless of the noise. Such a productive person always finds others
who will advocate their skills. There is always a welcome place in
Debian for someone who keeps productive in spite of the obstacles.
