There is a big difference between calling an inanimate object (a blog post as the case was) "bullshit" and calling a person, our teammate, "retarded." There's always lines you have to be careful to not cross when using foul language and unfortunately the fellow who wrote the blog post crossed the line. Defending his right to be as foul-mouthed as he pleases was *not* useful, no. We all know anybody can say whatever they want on the internet and occasionally jerks have a point - this is not news. > I believe in telling people what I think and can very well take the > reverse, but I understand that this isn't wanted in many places.

Otherwise I think it's easily understood you were simply trying to pass on what you considered useful feedback. ~m _______________________________________________ design-team mailing list design-team@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
