anger and FOSS

[spot]

I don't normally consider myself an angry person. I don't go around kicking puppies or punching holes in walls, but over the last day or so, I've been considering whether or not I default to anger

and you DIDN'T TELL ME?!? What the hell, dude... xoxoxo

Negative energy

[lordmuck]

I sympathise with your response; if anything else what DiBona said to you (going by what you've said here) is basically ad hominem and you've every right to feel upset (which is different to angry).

It's a bit easy to throw stones though - there are plenty of FOSS communities in which negativity like that you describe is at least tolerated if not commonplace :(

Never notied angry

But I will say - you are very driven and idealistic. And this can put some people off. I watched you fight the good fight when we shared the cube at RHAT, and your unwillingness to let them take the easy route, and standing up for not only your principles, but the principles of the community, does put people on the defensive

I don't really understand the computer stuff you're talking about, but you never seemed like an angry person to me. It's natural to get angry in some situations, of course, like when someone is a jerk to you like it sounds like that guy was.

Your Chromium work is appreciated

I think all users appreciate your work on chromium highly.

I have seen several of your reports in the chromium issue tracking system and in fact bug reporting there is just discouraging...

Keep going!
