I think the editor should known what his readers think about the articles he writes. Anyway he
can publish everything he want.

But about the question Gossip, do you really think that the morality of one peoples involved in
FLOSS developping would change anything? The FLOSS environment is made by all the
partecipant not by a single individual. I've heard nearly nothing about Hans Reiser after he was
found guilty and i've not seen any decadiment in the FLOSS expansion.

And in fact a lot of murderer can have a perfect behaviour during their work and a lot of
difficulties in their house. Yesterday morning a chartered accountant murdered his wife (a layer)
and his three son, but he probably did a good bookkeeping for his customers.
