Hi Hermann,
now if you are searching for helpful stuff I can make public a ten Emails
ping pong
betwwen stupid Chehab and me about my almost excellent dst-deselection patch
contributions.
In this ten Emails you will yourself see the intellectual and technical
proof in how far Mr. Chehab is acting with nothing else but:
a. Lies
b. Unproven thesis
c. Stigmatizations
and so on.
THIS MAN HAS NO IDEA, BUT HE HAS THE POWER!
That's it what I cannot live with!
I swear I never stumbled over such an utomst stubborn, stupid and horrible
idiot in my whole year lasting Linux experience, and I thought I could not
trust my eyes when I saw what incredible crap work was pushed into mainline
by the signature of this
incredible and horrible team chief from Brazil.
If you want to see the Emails, just ask me and I will forward them with a
couple of CCs. They will show the truth about the real consistence of this
"maintainer leader".
