You are not paying attention at all. Junio did *not* use my social manners as a reason to block the graduation, nor the quality of the code, he used a *TECHNICAL* reason. Prior to his decision there were no complaints about my "manners" since I returned. It was his *TECHNICAL* decision that triggered this. Junio never explained his *TECHNICAL* reason, and Michael Haggerty simply said "there are good technical arguments for and against moving git-remote-hg out of contrib", that was all his explanation for the *TECHNICAL* reason. You, and other people, are using the behavior I displayed *AFTER* Junio made his *TECHNICAL* decision as the cause for his decision not to graduate. That's a wrong direction fallacy. -- Felipe Contreras
