Looks a little bit as you would speak about the people that call my mailings aggressive, abrasive etc. Maybe my mailings are a help for them to improve their communication style, e.g. replacing "we" with something more specific.
Your communication style is what is driving others to ask for a separate tz-announce list. Not supported by the first line at http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/tz/2012-May/017741.html
They (as evidenced by private Emails which I will NOT share) and I are sick and tired of your style. Why do you care so much about style? I thought the mailing list is about fixing bugs in the tzdb?
While they and I still want, yeah, _need_, the tzdb and updates to it, we don't want to put up with your communication style. If you only need the tzdb and the updates, you can have look to solve this at the thread http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/tz/2012-May/017731.html
