Downvoters: If you're honest, then do your homework instead of downvoting. If you're dishonest, and you're trying to cover it up, shame on you--you're as bad as the abusers in Debian.
- geofft 8y agoThis is 1) irrelevant, he was not the maintainer for latexmk (in fact he did some non-maintainer uploads very recently for it to update it to the latest version), and 2) not true, he was not "harassed out of the project," he was removed by formal action. I read "harassed out" as "pressured into quitting" or something. He didn't quit under pressure; his account was removed. (And he's still a Debian Maintainer, same status as me.)
- explainplease 8y ago> he was not "harassed out of the project," he was removed by formal action. Ah, yes, the standard bureaucratic cover for abuse: retroactively justify it with formal committee action, by asking people to submit examples of badthink and badspeak from years ago: 2012: 1 email 2013: 7 emails 2014: 5 emails 2015: 1 email 2016: 0 emails 2017: 2 emails 2018: 2 emails Nothing wrong with that at all. Nothing to see here! Debian's a perfectly healthy project. Continue on your way.
