The respondent is quite the character…

He’s been expelled from the Debian project/community (source: https://www.debian.org/News/2021/20211117) and he’s in pretty bad standing with Free Software Foundation Europe.



Even if they are a reprobate they deserve fair treatment.


Right, but it does call into question whether those "posts which have been deleted from FedoraPlanet" are genuine or are defamatory nonsense. It also calls into question whether he is really intending to represent the Fedora developer community (as implied by the choice of domain name), or whether he's actually intending to harass and spread falsehood.

For instance, would he allow a post signed by prominent members of the Fedora community, describing his harassment and defamation in the Debian and Fedora channels, to be posted there? If not, then he's not acting in good faith.


What was the actual infraction?


yes, he dared to critize them on obvious shit shows. both organizations need to be critized on their actions.
