You don't agree that 1) a collegial work environment is overrated, 2) that the Linux kernel doesn't put an emphasis on being collegial, or 3) that it's the most successful software project in history? > I have consistently found your demeanor on the list to be very > unfriendly and difficult to work with.

Go back to my 261 commits, show me one that is "unmindful of technical details". > It is certainly your choice about how you will communicate.

And by that I mean it's in the best interest of our users, without which our project is nothing. -- Felipe Contreras
