A large number of people agreeing on a process like this does not
automatically make it an effective idea for resolving conflict. As I
outlined in my other mail, this kind of forced public apology approach in
my point of view is just serving to escalate matters. And actually it
seems that exactly that just happened right now. See my other mail for
suggestions on what I think might work better.
A large number of people agreeing on anything does not automatically make
it right.
I'd suggest to avoid any kind of power-play like "we are more than you" in
here. What would respectful communication would look like? What does
happen if *everyone* involved considers how it might feel in the shoes of
the other one?
I have and claim no standing in kernel community. So take this for
whatever it is worth for you. I won't be offended in case you disregard it.
Also I do not need any reply.
And again, just for clarity: I certainly do not condone of the tone Kent
has used.
Best,
