There's nothing wrong with discriminating against the guy in the wheelchair under some circumstances - for instance, when your track team needs a new high jumper. Similarly, when the goal is to build a set of developers that can actually get work accomplished, poor interpersonal communication skills can be a major problem. If the problem is that Hans and the rest of the kernel developers don't get along, perhaps the most expedient thing would be for Hans to step out of the way and have somebody else from Namesys (or elsewhere even) act as the interface. --==_Exmh_1127071009_9673P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh version 2.5 07/13/2001 iD8DBQFDLb0hcC3lWbTT17ARAh78AKCUBibrT7caXvhfNVC1teNqbcugnwCgkgWX uJb21oCrWCsYfP9lo6/zlWA= =onP7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_1127071009_9673P--
