Hello,

About the subject...
	Re: [gentoo-dev] Is anyone a prude?
Well, I think it is Out of context ... I come from where people, girls 
and guys go to sauna together naked, run out and jump in the snow, hole 
in the ice, or water in (short)summer. I was about to delete the thread, 
seeing it originated from you and not even read it... but since I was in 
a happy mood and wondered how come over 100 messages came in the dev box 
alone...

After reading most of the thread let me explain what in here pisses me 
off ... and what doesn't ...

I am stuck with debian guru at my door, and our COO is a debian sold 
guy... comments like this are real good ammo pointed straight back at me.

  See,

I have NO trouble with that being in the tree, no less, no more than 
some gory game titles, it's the name of it and that's all there is to 
it. Some Spam filter might have gotten that one ...

Who ?

Don't talk about politic, it is as bad as talking about religion... Your 
post has probably been flagged and maybe even censured in some 
countries, because of this statement.

> christian rednecks
Don't ever ever EVER mix any religious, type, belief, derogatory comment 
or any of that type of manure in a international forum !! Ever, you 
don't and nobody should. This post might have been censured because of 
this comment too...

> come after me in their SUVs,

Schizo should be taken care of at your nearest mental hospital !
But I have to say I have strong opinion on this subject too, but I won't 
voice it here ! (we should have a gentoo-babbling list for that kind of 
community only but not related to gentoo itself discussion)

> toting shotguns,
Another evil, for public forum.

> waving their rebel flags and 
Well, I don't mind it too much, I might see some people having real 
rebel flags floating around and being shot at once in a while...

> proclaiming that the Earth is flat.

This is I think not really dangerous...


Why do you have to make a simple, email that could look like this:

Subject: Rude words in package names

What would people here think about brainfuck as a package name... 
upstream is http://link, more relevant info is http://... link, I know
4 people here are using it, I use it

What should we do ?

Signed your name


Into, If you say I am wrong you are a prude fellow ?
