This behavior is actively harmful to GMP and GNU. Some developers may be more polite than others, but you really need to follow the bug reporting instructions. If it is a bug in gmp, we'd like to fix it, of course. Or if it's a configuration error, we'd like to resolve that too, but then we still need to start with the proper bug reporting information. > It also illustrates why codes of conduct are more than a cosmetic > gimmick. I'd prefer not to not have the general code-of-conduct-debate on the gmp-bugs list. If you are disappointed about any individual's behaviour, I suspect it's usually more productive to start by trying to solve it off list (maybe you did? I wouldn't know of course). Mailing list discussons about personal issues tend to overheat too easily. (And it has taken me more than 30 minutes to formulate this reply, which I hope is sufficiently polite and respectful. I really hope that was time well spent). Best regards, /Niels --=20 Niels M=C3=B6ller. PGP-encrypted email is preferred. Keyid C0B98E26. Internet email is subject to wholesale government surveillance.
