Seems reasonable for 99% of cases. What's the recourse for the other 1%? I decided look it up the words on Google because I haven't studied language. [1] Based on the definition, the term "innuendo" seems to apply to the muted thread, as well as the term "equivocal." This thread, on the other hand clears the uncertainty of the previous discussion, though obviously doesn't tell all sides. V/r, James Cassell [1] in·nu·en·do noun: innuendo; plural noun: innuendoes; plural noun: innuendos an allusive or oblique remark or hint, typically a suggestive or disparaging one. al·lu·sive adjective: allusive (of a remark or reference) working by suggestion rather than explicit mention. o·blique adjective: oblique not explicit or direct in addressing a point. e·quiv·o·cal adjective: equivocal open to more than one interpretation; ambiguous. "the equivocal nature of her remarks" uncertain or questionable in nature. _______________________________________________ council-discuss mailing list -- council-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to council-discuss-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/council-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
