Stepping back up as a co-maintainer

Stepping back up as a co-maintainer

[Mark H Weaver]

Hello all,

In light of recent events, I've decided to step back up as a
co-maintainer of GNU Guile.

     Thanks,
       Mark

I'm a simple Guile user and I hope I'm wrong, but I think Mark H weaver are
saying half-thruth here
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2019-10/msg00021.html
because he has a very close friendship witch Richard Stallmam:
"I've known RMS for a long time. For a few years, I spent most of my time
two doors down from him at the MIT AI lab. I was the FSF staff sysadmin for
a while, and did sysadmin work on RMS's laptop. I was his preferred typist
when he shattered his elbow and helped him replace his bandages, etc."
http://logs.guix.gnu.org/guile/2014-08-09.log

I think the joint statement
https://guix.gnu.org/blog/2019/joint-statement-on-the-gnu-project/ is the
true key factor of his return.

I think we should trust what Mark says and not second guess him.

Helping or being friend with someone is not among the worst crimes on my
list.

Definitely. I think this should count for *all*. Second-guessing anyone
in this difficult situation can only add more difficulties on top.

I think each of us should apply Hanlon's razor with much generosity.

Towards all people involved (that doesn't mean we should paper over
the obvious problems we have, mind you).

Let's hope so. But in Spain we have a proverb: "Blanco y en botella,
leche". "White and bottle -> milk". Let's hope it doesn't come true.

I'm afraid arguing by analogy or proverb rarely helps, because the analogy
is usually inaccurate in some way.

Also, what about Horchata? :-)
