what do you want to see in future apt versions ?

[Sheemon Lists]

Wow!  Talk about escalation, hot headedness, over what?
An argument (if that) over a word that is 1, meaningless, 2, you can easily
replace with anything else.

And to assign (multiple times) any international derogative of the extreme
to that storm in a teacup.
And to jump from that into USA federal politics too?
Good thing Hydrogen bombs are under lock and key.

Cool down, say polite thank you to those who work to create and/or maintain
an object of value without direct (sometimes any) pay and stick to the
facts.
Your opinion really does not belong here.
Your language hardly belongs in any forum, but this is my opinion.

We are all here to help maintain a fragile, very complex system.
We come from varied backgrounds, abilities, life experiences, and world
views.
We have to check them at the door, or this system will collapse too.
Please, do not start a flame war with me.  I am not interested at all.

If you think I agree with your foes, you are wrong, but your aggression
needs be checked.

Sincerely,

Simon
