It's clear what Christoph meant: the > desktop team has a lack of non-RH contributors. Why is that a problem? It's not. The fact that people cast aspersions or suspicions on a whim just because of someone's employer is bullshit. It doesn't matter why they're pointing it out. This continues to happen over and over, and I would guess that it's the repetitiveness of it all that prompted Bill's comment. Personally, this whole thread is the perfect example of the kind of behavior on all sides that turns me off to the Fedora community entirely. The overreaction, the pile on of unrelated issues, the bitching about employers, the inevitable "trying to facilitate" but not really actually doing anything. It's very old and very tired.
