As much as I actually like diego, he does tend to travel a very hard line when viewing things outside of the area that he can control. Specifically he talked about the lack of a news item for the extension of the Google Summer of Code. Instead of taking the initiative on seeing an item that should of been on the front page, he comes and blogs about it as a) and mentions it to me b).A news item was posted during the time I wrote this.

The reason I mention the above is to actually talk about one aspect of Gentoo that has developed that has bothered me for some time. The best way to describe the general attitude is that of kids when they first go to kindergarten to be quite honest. Many kids as you might know have issues with sharing. “No its my toy” “You can’t play with it because I’m playing with it” and other similar things are said at that age.

In Gentoo you have “Its my package, you shouldn’t touch it, you’ll break it” “Its my channel and I’ll kick you because I want to” and other similar things. I would think there is a similarity there. Quite honestly I’m growing tired of this childish behavior and what its doing to everyone who’s beyond that age range and just wants to get stuff actually done. If you notice the people who do the most work, don’t have time or bother with such minor or petty things and just work…perhaps everyone should step back and see when (not if) you’ve acted this way and change it so that we can be a happier family.
