Corbet, you are right, my provocation lied more in the reference to the second thread which was filled with nothing but unprovoked insults directed towards me though.
But I guess we can do without the symbiotic relationship between trolling and troll cannibalism.. ;)
Btw. sorry for my mixup with me claiming you writing me trying to push rpm5 on mageia, I was thinking of the more slanderous osnews article where I even also was blamed as the developer ticking Jeff off..
For what it's worth, your article did generate positive responses and mostly healthy discussions and exchange of information that was actually quite well received at fellows at Mandriva and in our community. :)
Given that you wrote the article watching from the side-line online, you actually showed a remarkable insight which no way in hell can be compared to Fox whatsoever.

Since the beginning you've been a Mageia hater. We can see it with mails from you like this one at the beginning of the project :
Now with rpm5.org shutdown without notice/rpm6 fork, you've tried to put the blame on "mageia dissident zealot troll" :
But thanks to the latest email from Jeff Johnson on cooker, we know more about the reasons for the rpm6 fork :
And it has nothing to do with Mageia, trolls, FUD or anything like that.

Heh, I think people reading my post will view it as quite sane, with questions asked and issued raised, which noone else did, despite they really should've been.
Some of the more sensible mageia project members, Michael Scherer, you'll find even sharing the same concerns and voicing some of the same scepticism, asking people not to attack me for asking such questions.
rpm5.org has not been shutdown and the mail forwarded to the cooker list was originally posted to engineering@, where it later was cleared up to be a misunderstanding, quoting from internal mail:

So that's where thing actually lies on the map, so given that all your trolls and attempts at pronouncing rpm5.org dead and spreading FUD with articles of yours such as this: https://linuxfr.org/users/boklm/journaux/la-fin-de-rpm5 ,
Majority of members involved in both Mandriva and Mageia has great interest in collaboration and communication, you've been actively undermining this from the start, if you have any care and respect for the community at full for any of the projects, please stop this crusade of yours immediately.

rpm5.org has been down for about a week (without any explanation), that's what I was talking about.

It doesn't matter why jbj wasn't paid, if there is a valid reason or not, if there was a misunderstanding or not. I'm not talking about that. What I'm telling you is that the reason for shutting down rpm5.org website and announcing an rpm6 fork was a problem (or misunderstanding if you prefer) between Jeff and Mandriva. Which has nothing to do with Mageia, or me, or anyone trolling, contrary to what you've been saying. If there's anyone spreading FUD, it's you.

I have not been undermining anything, I'm not against collaboration, I'm not on a crusade. And I did not announce the death of rpm5, the only thing I did was to ask a simple question about the status of rpm5.org [1] (which it seems interested a lot of people according to the answers in the thread). If Jeff decided to insult people, only give cryptic answers and create rpm6.org, I'm not responsible for this. And I have nothing to do with rpm5.org being shut down. So please stop spreading FUD on me, accusing me of various things, insulting me ...
