I don't think you are in the minority thinking it is a shame when a contributor leaves a project. I only really follow the lists these days but there are names you come to recognise due the frequency with which they appear and David's was one. I do think this is a very unfortunate episode and think the time is probably ripe for a re-enforcing of Fedora's position on Mono and would invite FESCo or the FPL to make one. > I will just note here that Ubuntu has a code of conduct which is worth > reading: > > http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct I for one would welcome the introduction of the above for Fedora. Lets not get snooty - its perfectly good but would need some modification as Fedora doesn't have a SABDFL. It would also be good to take some positives from all of this.
