wow ... even if i don't buy all the "gnome maniacs" mindshare (which
actually is a very friendly community), i have to admit i'm pissed off
to see those kind of answer, this isn't only rude (Emmanuele just wanted
to share an opinion) but *this* was useless, whatever your definition of
useless is.

reading those kind of quotes in an open source mailing list in 2017
looks awkward to me...
