Re: Code of Conduct complaint about Linus's comments at DC14 :: Respect

No, that's clearly not true.  Linus does not treat people with respect by
my definition of the word.  He treats people with aggressive contempt in a
way that no human being should ever be treated.  Maybe I should use some
word other than respect for that, but regardless, he is not meeting that
standard, and that's unacceptable.  And should be unacceptable inside
Debian.

That disagreement is not going to go away by changing the definitions.
