That is not the thing said there. It only implies that this issue is
higly inflamable, and putting it on a wider mailing list is not a good
tactical move. And please don't tell me that there is not a single troll
on this list.

The OP could:

 - have looked through the logs
 - ask the maintainers directly about their opinion
 - repeat his question on the debburn-devel mailing list

Instead, he takes a snippet of my neutral answer from a different
thread, presents it in a slightly different context to create an
impression of some certain statement supporting his position and calls
the big brother (debian-legal) with that stuff immediately. _This_ is
disgusting, sorry.
