Ralf Mardorf, The full description is not "general public to discuss" but: "This list is for Trusted Users, Arch Linux developers, and the general public to discuss issues surrounding the Trusted User structure and the Arch User Repository (AUR)." It describes who and what, it's pretty clear. Dave Reisner,
Rarely, if ever, do people simply dump command output on aur-general and expect anything to come of it. You're the minority.
This is a logical fallacy and an appeal to popularity, this doesn't make him wrong. As a first-timer, how could he know that posting what he judged to be an issue, proved not to be an actual issue? It certainly was about the Arch User Repository. When applying some good will, I think it's clear that he thought he posted to the right communication channel. Even though his post contained no formal arguments, no single post can be a discussion in itself. -- Sincerely, Alexander Rødseth xyproto / TU
