I would like to publicly apologize for the aggressive and abusive remarks that I 
directed at Michał Górny, Rich Freeman, and others during my tenure as a Gentoo 
developer and Trustee.

I've spent some time thinking about my involvement in libre software. I allowed 
my idealism to get the best of me, and trusted evidence presented to me by 
strangers that was situational and out of context, from conversations that I was 
not party to. I later learned that my involvement in said group was misguided, 
and I was used as a convenient tool for social disruption. It doesn't excuse my 
behavior, however, since it reflected poorly on Gentoo and its Foundation, and 
created unnecessary strife in a "workplace" of sorts that already has enough 
stressors.

To clarify, I only write this much to explain the course of events succinctly, 
to claim that I was not coerced or legally compelled, and I have made no contact 
in my absence. (i.e. there's no hidden story) I'm just here to say, "Sorry for 
being an asshole."

Sincerely,

    Daniel Campbell
