Wiki

[Adam Sommer]

I came across that page a couple of weeks ago, and like Michael my first
reaction was to get a little angry.  After reading it again though and
looking through the CategoryCleanup page I started to see the point of the
person who wrote those comments.  I then went and updated a couple of pages,
mostly server area pages (dovecot, php, mysql, etc).

So I guess even though the comment is inflammatory and rude, it did motivate
me to update some pages.  Posts like that don't really make sense to me
because when you think about it the person who makes such comments is trying
to hold someone responsible for the content, but since it's a community wiki
the Ubuntu Community is responsible.  From what I've seen there's nothing
stopping anyone from being part of the community.

That's my opinion anyway.  Thanks for playing.
