And the sad thing about all that sound and fury is that apparently,
nobody learned a thing from it:
- The EWiL HOWTO is perfect as it stands, because it says what
somebody wanted it to say in the first place.
- Many are still offended by its sweeping generalizations, seemingly
abusive and insulting tone, and advocacy of reverse discrimination.
- People are still being told, "Wow! You're ________!" despite
requests to the contrary.
> the discussion, would you please start your own mailinglist. Or continue
I'd encourage that. It appears it's needed, and too bad LinuxChix
isn't the right place for it.
Sigh. SNAFU.
