Both sides of the issue should realize that this is a universal community here spanning the globe (no ETs yet though ...)
Yes. Accidents happen. People misunderstand eachother. And cultures, or ideas about thing differ. Hell, even ego's differ :P But when people always comment with "that is the way I am" they are very aware of their rudeness. That should have been enough reason to NOT hit the reply button half of the times.... One personal tip is, please minimize the window when, or after, you are typing such a message. Walk out. Grab a beer. Or go to sleep. Then later on, open that mail again, read it through (says me, mr typo... :)) and you will find yourself rude, unrealistic, or at least unprofessional. Most often you will decide to just delete that message, possibly with red cheeks. Making Drupals code better every cycle is one thing. We are technicians, it is a very natural thing even! Becoming better, as a whole(!) appears to be a more difficult task. /We/ can prove that OSS is really also (or maybe really) about people. And about working together. Not just about the code, but also about the road to that code. (after all, is OSS not Just A Way Of Doing Stuff?) In OSS the community is often just as important as the product. Let us never forget that. Lets make thing better! (quote from Philips) Bèr
