To be fair, this is a troll too.

Original poll was conducted by Charles Schulz.  Top winner was something like mandala or something that apparently sounds funny in Russian, and was a result of some immature trolling.  Second was probably OpenMandriva, which is an irresponsible choice for a *product* name, due to trademark issues.  Third was Moondrake.  Seemed the best choice given the combination of responsibility and community preference at that time.  Furthermore, there was nothing set in stone about it that it couldn't be changed again before the release.  Finally, setting the name to *something* was made more urgent by Charles Schulz (again) demanding on behalf of MDV that it no longer be called "Mandriva Linux" as it still was at that time.

Probably the person who had contributed more to the distro than anyone, but had their Git repo privledges revoked due to some people's lack of understanding of #4 above.  It's hard to blame him for being mad.  It's also not fair to blame him for other things that were not his fault, as you are trying to do.

And what motivation could you have for further pushing this kind of BS?  You've put a lot of work into this project too, don't you care about it?  All of this FUD and politics and BS and infighting is what has people like Guy saying the things he said.  It's what has other people outside of the project looking in and saying OpenMandriva is a total mess right now (yes I have actually seen this happen, and somewhat frequently lately).  It is keeping some people from wanting to become contributors.  It is making some current contributors wanting to go elsewhere.  It also certainly doesn't help that a certain someone that you seem to have a problem with for no good reason, has good work to contribute to the project and still isn't able to.

If you really care about this project, wouldn't it be better to try and stop this nonsense and fighting, and find some way to work together?
