(1) This thread starts out with a post that contains stuff like "I'm
    not sure where or when we should add it so I'm asking for feedback
    here.", how does that not constitute wider consultation? You've
    posted here, how has your opportunity to chime in been taken from
    you?

    If kde-promo isn't wide enough, how about politely suggesting
    alternative, broader venues?

(2) Disdainful bullshit like "farce" and "certain circles" doesn't
    consitute "aggressive sarcasm", it's just called "being an ass-
    hole", and you're too smart not to know better.

    If you think someone's acting naively or out of inexperience,
    use the pull of your seniority to guide them toward making better
    decisions so we don't lose their manpower. Don't teach them that
    old-timers are cranky fucks who don't do anything but resist
    change, or try to intimidate people into not doing anything, even
    if that includes not making mistakes.

    You're not beyond learning how this stuff works.


Cheers,
Eike
