It would be compelling if changing words on a wiki page somehow made something easier. It doesn't, and instead we continue to assume because we have a guideline everybody a) is aware of it and b) immediately follows it. Look, we can just stop now. People want to pretend we don't have problems or that the guideline is a solution when it isn't. That's OK. I've offered some suggestions on how to improve things, and people don't agree because it theoretically causes them more work. That's also OK. I'm not interested in debating it further when people aren't even reading what I've written. josh _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/DTOG6BOWRI2AWYWTMALEOFNGUDEW5TC5/
