Well... Let's put it like this.

Sometime a while ago an oldtimer dev attacked a newbie dev on IRC, basically 
just because the newbie did his job properly, and this would have resulted in 
additional work for the oldtimer. 

I took the liberty of telling the old guy to stfu and not interfere.

Immediately, several others, who had not followed the issue at all, started 
directing comments at me, telling me I was wrong. To my immense amusement, 
they then gave emphasized statements how things should be done, and that was 
exactly how the *newbie* did it!

Now, I dont care that much anymore. However, I would suggest... If we do 
update our code of conduct we should make one thing very clear in the code of 
conduct or devrel guidelines or whatever: Independent of how many thousands of 
commits on g-x86 you did or do, 

Noone in gentoo is irreplaceable enough to justify gross misbehaviour.
