are rapidly destroying whatever positive benefit you’ve brought to the
Maemo community over the years-you should reflect on that. Maybe
maemo.org isn’t the place for you anymore, if you disagree so strongly
with the way the community is headed-if that’s the case, I wish you well
in wherever you end up. If not, and you chose to stay, you should reflect
on why you feel the need to continually, and relentlessly (and from my point of
view: baselessly) attack the current BoD and Council. Stand back and let
them do their work, and if you don’t like the way it’s being done,
you have the same choice you would have with your own country’s
government: either vote for someone else, or run for office yourself.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

While I also doesn't like his tone, lets be serious here. You would be
extremely happy, if your account, PM's, and all posts would disappear, just
because maemo.org is overgoing "hostile takeover" by so-called
Community Representatives? <br>
<br>
And this part, especially: <br>
> The attitude and wording shown in your email might provide enough reason <br>

<br>
I hope, that you're not talking serious. Here, in <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Poland</st1:place></st1:country-region>, this was way of thinking,
that Communist dictatorship presented for 50 years, and I'm not eager to see it
again, anywhere. <br>
<br>
Let's ban everyone, and delete everything, just in case. Those, who will react
with respect and love for new Dictatorship, will be proven worthy. Others? It's
their fault, after all, they reaction *after* is enough to justify moderation
abuse *before*. <br>
--- <br>
<br>
No matter of his inappropriate wording, he should be - first of all - excused
by people responsible. <br>
<br>
Also, I can hardly imagine, how ivgalvez can stay in Board and Council without
burning to red (through pink and violet) from shame. <br>
<br>
But, considering <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>low morals</span></b> of
most people being Maemo "rulers" now, he won't have any problem with
this, probably... We already had Chair being glue to chair, despite numerous
fails, and overall catastrophical results of anything, that he touched. I don't
expect Ivan to present more ammount of personal honour, sadly. <br>
<br>
Now, feel free to ban me permanently from maemo.org, for writing the above. If
this is how this community looks now - with losers appointed to TMO moderators,
rogue IRC chanops, hopeless Board that is too "high" to communicate
with Community without Public Relation Department, and marionette Council - I
don't want to be a part of this anymore. <br>
<br>
After all, it's only 50 days to zero-hour (unless Nokia save the day, and
decide to pay longer). Only one hope, now, is in Maemo's FOSS spirit, taking
shelter somewhere else, due to work of really dedicated people. Sure, maemo.org
domain is lost to "hostile takeover" by compromitted (and
compromised) Foundation, but fortunatelly, it's not the thing, that matters
most. <br>
<br>
I'm really sure, that Maemo's spirit will be preserved in other, more friendly
place. <br>
