May 23, 2016 at 12:06 comment added Sven Mod All that said, I've to say that my mod action certainly doesn't mean any kind of disrespect at all towards you and I am really sorry if you should feel this way.
May 23, 2016 at 12:06 comment added Sven Mod @ewwhite: I am really not opposed to adding/keeping the Wikipedia link describing the specific Reiser problem at all - this is certainly a valid point and, like Andrew, I have missed the link in the deleted section. If this is the main part of your grief, we can easily fix this. My issue is the mugshot and the derogatory comment coming with it - I think it violates our be nice rule and thus has no place here, and for this the age of the post is irrelevant.
May 23, 2016 at 11:29 comment added ewwhite It's true. The scandal drove developers away from the Reiser filesystem and killed its use and mindshare in production environments. A non-technical cause with a technical and business impact.
May 21, 2016 at 18:08 comment added HopelessN00b So what if it's disrespectful? How much respect does a man who murdered his mail-order-bride really deserve? Like it or not, undesirable personalities in lead project developers is a factor in product selection. For example, I know of multiple companies that are moving or have moved off of Observim (onto a fork) because they're sick of Adam Armstrong's flaming jackassery.
May 21, 2016 at 15:36 comment added ewwhite Removal was unnecessary. I don't have to provide a technical justification because the answer, context and problem was resolved... Years ago. I objected because of the comments and the subsequent rollback.
