The thread was repetitive from a thread that had been shut down because it had degenerated way past "be excellent to each other", and seemingly was restarted explicitly to incite more flames, misinformation and hatred. The only thing I found objectionable was that it was allowed to last _so_ _long_ before being killed. Hopefully, in the future, if a thread is hall monitored the people who were the main reason it got out of control won't be allowed to wait a few weeks, change the subject and start it back up. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
