I never questioned your skills or your kannada knowledge, the point I was
making was about there being people "more qualified"/"more experienced" than
you to "lead" such an effort and those people would most definitely not want
to work "under" you.

I'm sure a lot of people here admire your enthusiasm but you need to channel
it in the right way and direction.

First get it out of your head that everyone here is against you, or thinks
lowly of you because you are a student, all of us were students once, and we
never had half the opportunities you have today and we would like you to
make the most of it.

So please stop threatening to quit in every other email you send to the list.
Leave that job to our politicians.

Everyone here wants as many people involved as possible, but they also want
people who will work with the team. Most people here are just advising you
with good intentions their even if their tones may not be
ultra-friendly(they have encountered such situations before and know how
things turn out.), but they don't hate you or don't want you to succeed.

Just like you can't walk into your College/University's Principal/VC's office
and tell him/her that the indian education system sucks and so it needs to
be changed right *NOW*. You can't do that in an established community either,
work your way up until you have proven yourself and then your suggestions
will be taken a lot more seriously.

Most of the people here have been involved with Linux and other community
related efforts much longer than you and you have to give some weightage to
their experience/wisdom when they say it's not the right way to do something.

No I'm not and have no intentions of ever being one.
