I am not in a position to be able to judge most of these, but I am very
unlikely to support giving any kind of power to a person who has
exhibited the kind of gratuitous insulting/attacking attitude seen from
you on this list lately. You may very well be supremely qualified in all
technical aspects, but in the last week or two you have completely
neutralized just about every reason I may have ever had to trust you.

You may (or may not) have had a point with some or all of your list of
"neu-team" failings, but the kind of hostile, belligerent, offense-ive
(in the sense of "seeking to give offense") attitude you've taken has
done nothing to help your cause and, at least in my case, has removed
any possibility there may have been of support for either you or the
points you were trying to make.

I'm only barely part of the team - I do documentation proofreading and
grammar checking, and that far less than I should - but for the little
my opinion is worth, here it is; I'm not happy to say it, but it's true.
