I get to weigh in now, great. Youâre going to get three parts of me - Core Dev hat, Ubuntu Server (volunteer/community) Team Contributor, and Community Council.
Discourse Moderators: Please get in touch with me separately, this is a wide-scale community issue that we need to address specially here.
Okay, coredev and contributor hat on.
RE: network-manager-openconnect and openconnect
I would suspect the Desktop team has ZERO intention to support these. Both are Universe, and openconnect is the server and client application that Network Manager uses. Because itâs heavily Command Line driven under the scenes, I would suspect that the Desktop Team has zero interest to maintain a primarily Server application.
You mention âthe package and its dependenciesâ - this does NOT include vPNC, sToken, or python-mechanize directly, all of which are primarily not Desktop level software unless you must have OpenConnect. I suspect this is the same reason that network-manager-{vpnc,openvpn,...} are not in Main either.
Now my CC hat on, and the justification for why Iâm using my CC-powered mod hat here to lock this thread.
Your demeanor when addressing issues is EXTRAORDINARILY demanding and condescending. This is continually echoed in #ubuntu-security, #ubuntu-devel, and #ubuntu-release on IRC, to the point this has been complained about to me with my CC hat on.
I have personally asked you to tone down your approaches with these issues, to which you have effectively been a âbrick wallâ and continue to be condescending and overly demanding with your requests.
The Ubuntu Community and Technical Teams, whether Community or Canonical-paid, DO NOT work for you. You may personally believe that there is justification to make these priority issues, however none of the issues youâve specified anywhere are high priority, nor need the attention or effort youâre putting into them. Where you see justification is there, the reasons for your justification have been generally weak and not enough to substantially support the amount of efforts youâre putting in. Thereâs also been discussion that you have a âhidden agendaâ here among the backchannels that people communicate on privately, and the ârandom effortsâ youâre putting in to areas that donât need that effort are starting to get you put on the âbad listsâ for people - i.e. the list of which people will IGNORE your messages and requests.
Every one of your requests to get SRUs or Security patches reviewed has been done with incessant daily pinging of people in a way that is contradictory to the CoC and to the ability to properly get teamsâ interest in things.
Because of this, I am STRONGLY recommending right now that you step back from your ongoing tirades/pushes on your requests demands that you are making, and take a step back from your attempts to âimprove Ubuntuâ by demanding teams act on your bugs immediately. Thatâs not how the Community or Ubuntu Development work. And your âeffortsâ are starting to become thorns in various teamsâ sides to the point that itâs getting up to the CCâs levels of needing our attention.
I have closed this topic and locked it for all the aforementioned reasons - this discussion thread here is not going to serve any useful purpose other than to continue the âbrick wallâ approach that you have tried to use with justifying things Luis, and thatâs just not tolerated nor Ubuntu CoC compliant.
