I admit I like the irony of you complaining about my use of metaphor while yours fails to state whose point is on earth and therefore I have no idea if being 30 light years away from your point is necessarily a bad thing. I like air. > The point I am worried about is that Chris and you are treating this as a > binary problem versus a spectrum one. No, I'm treating it as someone bringing a dead cat to a dinner party problem. When someone says a compulsory password quality policy is actionable, they are telling me my judgement cannot be trusted for my own device, without respect to context. And yet I see other OS's, distros, mobile devices, none of which have such a requirement or are yet even more permissive, and that makes me distrust these proponents. A gap in trust has formed, and widens as proponents don't even acknowledge such concerns and push for the change violating myriad long standing expectations in the relationship between user, device and OS. But I must comply if I depend on the GUI installer, and this abrogation constitutes a misfeasance. That makes me mad because it's unfair. I challenge you to find a single flaw in that sequence. All I'm saying is, take the dead cat off the table. There are plenty of other things to discuss before things are so dire we have to seriously consider eating road kill. > I am more worried about the general case of the process of this 'request for > change'.

I don't know what general case you're referring to, or what in actual practice about it worries you or what your propose as an alternative. The process I was mainly referring to is the entirety of 2nd paragraph of self-contained change here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Policy -- Chris Murphy -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
