This document is written for the Debian project, but I believe it's a
good guide to any open mailing list:
https://www.debian.org/code_of_conduct

I am pretty sure all participants in this thread are trying to help. But
I will ask you all to consider the "In case of problems" section of that
document before continuing this discussion.  In particular:

 "Assume good faith; it is more likely that participants are unaware of
  their bad behaviour than that they intentionally try to degrade the
  quality of the discussion."


In my experience, you will miss a lot if you disregard articles you find
"rude".  Direct and concise advice might sometimes come out harsher than
it was meant.  It doesn't make the advice any less worth. On the
contrary.


Thanks,
Bjørn
