I'm not very sure, but I tend to believe that some offences cause more harm than others. I believe that the suffering of women in projects that use their own infrastructure to promote women being beaten deserve more consideration than the suffering of someone who's upset because their package promoting violence against women isn't welcome. So, if I had to make a choice, it wouldn't be too hard to take a side. I'd feel sorry if the upset packager folk leave the project, but even more if we get to loose the ones directly offended by the actual offence. I also believe that the majority of our community would agree with me. But again, I'm not very sure. > This will go both ways. As usual. Bests, -- Tiago Bortoletto Vaz
