I think one can really state objectively that Harald is frequently very 
rude to people in email messages. It is probably the case that this 
rudeness bothers some people more than others. But just because it 
doesn't bother some people, is not a reason to let this practice 
continue.

Harald's behavior is going to drive some people away from Fedora. There 
is no need for Harald to be behaving like that. He needs to cut the 
pointless insults (for example calling people stupid) and cut back on 
the swearing. Less hyperbole would be nice as well, but that isn't 
something I'd want to ban people over.

I am not sure where the exact line his, but Harald's behavior is pretty 
clearly beyond it. It's not like he can't change to resolve the issue.
