So, I assume it did not help you see.
I think what Steve is talking about may have occurred between
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=727708#20
and
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=727708#30
but right now I'm only seeing every fifth message, so it's hard to tell.
#30 does quote something worded pretty strongly to the effect of "Go
make your arguments somewhere else!" however. (Remembering that
"please" does not always mean, "if you please".)

Be careful where you see conspiracy.
Look first in your own heart,
and ask yourself if you are not your own worst enemy.
