 |  A morality cabal of Debian users tried to knife Torvalds He is too rude and our mothers’ object A morality cabal of Debian users had a go at censoring IT’s Mr Sweary Linus Torvalds in 2014 according to a leak of documents from Debian-private. The documents show a group of Linux developers who were so shocked that Torvalds swore at a conference they were attempting to use the Debian code-of-conduct to get him ostracised from the Linux mother church. What appears to have got their knickers in a twist was that: “Linus described the Free Software Foundation as `bigots.’" The emails say things like Debian should make a public statement that Linus will not be welcome at Debian events in future. “Debian owes the FSF an apology. That apology should be at least as public as the offence. I’m unaware of any such public apology or statement. Debian does its best to antagonise Linus Torvalds, much as it has already succeeded in seriously antagonising Richard M. Stallman.” https://fudzilla.com/news/51489-a-mo...knife-torvalds |
