There=E2=80=99s nothing personal in doi= ng that; it=E2=80=99s the behavior that we should condemn, not the person. =20=20 Let's not exaggerate; sending sloppy bug reports might be considered as disrespectful, but I wouldn't go so far as calling "this behavior" "unacceptable". We're making a mistake if we assume malice when we read something we do not like. Mike Mohr writes: I have seen many examples of this type of conduct from him, both towards myself as well as others. I am a software engineer who works in Silicon Valley, and I cannot imagine working with someone who is frequently abrasive and disparaging. Such an individual would not last very long on my team. We're all humans and I shall not exaggerate my critisism of sloppy bug reports, and I shall not sink to making an ad hominem response. [I'm going back to doing productive work now. I will not respond further to this thread, but I respect that others might want to continue, and I will read the contributions. Please use gmp-discuss, the gmp-bugs list is for bug reports.] --=20 Torbj=C3=B6rn Please encrypt, key id 0xC8601622
