It's the way how Daniel is acting now and in the past. It's not only
todays incident (where Daniel has horked the default settings for _ALL_
operating systems and not only Linux) - things like his attacks against
Kaleb Keithley and Julien Lafon, randomly closing bugzilla bugs (like
the request from SuSE staff to update the xterm version in the
monolithic tree), uploading patches with offensive comments (while
"wondering" why people act quite upset when they find these comments),
ignoring review comments in bugs even after two people asked for
adjustments, filing extra bugzilla bugs with comments just to harass the
people (like the "... lets upload OpenSSH, VNC etc. into Xorg CVS,
too..." - https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2363), and
various other "accidents" resulted in the need of such a seperate call.

Bye,
