Patrick merely pointed out the list guidelines.  There is nothing
wrong with that, especially when someone has apparently missed them in
the list welcome message and the footer of ever post.

For reference, those guidelines are at:

    http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

Every community has standards and norms in some form.  I don't think
the list guidelines are at all onerous and asking folks to kindly
abide by them is quite reasonable.

It's not about 'facing reality' it's about being courteous.

I believe in the noble, aristocratic art of doing absolutely nothing.
And someday, I hope to be in a position where I can do even less.
