Wow, I am really surprised by this turn of events. It appears to me, from
reading the LWN link as well as the links within the LWN article, that
devuan.kn actually has a solid point. I cannot speak for the other stuff
that he(she?) mentions but this GCC/hairball statement appears at the very
least highly plausible, and certainly not reason for expulsion.

This isn't the first time we have scared away new/potential community
members because they didn't subscribe to the "One Correct Truth", or even
simple miscommunication/language barriers, or where new members were picked
for "excommunication" both off-list as well as on-list. At that time I
dropped my list involvement significantly, moving to more of a lurker
instead of being a participator.

Whilst I really believe in the goals and technical directions behind
Devuan, I am increasingly uncomfortable with the evolution of the social
environment. Personally, I am a great believer in live and let live. It is
starting to feel like the Manor Farm around here....
