If you resort to throwing someone off a team,
you are taking the last resort.  You've given up.

Blaming the culture is even more general.
It's like saying the whole team has to go.

I have no opinion about RMS.

I don't know why you take what I said that way.
Banning someone is giving up.

I am only willing to judge by results.
Years ago, XEmacs was superior to Emacs.
Now it seems to me the Emacs team is firing on all cylinders.
They caught up to and surpassed XEmacs.

I also believe it's the responsibility of new-comers to adapt
to the team as it is.

If Xah has more to contribute than RMS, he could join the team
and show it by example.   If he really believes it's impossible,
let him fork the code and draw his own team.
