I am not a friend of censorship in any way but as an observer for quite
some time, I have to say that I consider the postings of Blue Chip being
rather aggressive to whom ever they are addressed. Is it only the
language or the content?
The first thread I remember was the “C versus Assembler” series and I
think this thread is symptomatic for most of the BC postings I saw.

BTW the series finished like

He thought people don’t like him since they did not accept his help and
I fear from this point on he was upset.

Yes I think he was trying to help but without accepting the answers of
the core developers. You may not help someone against his will even if
you think that it is the best thing that could happen to him or her. In
the Rockbox Project like any other project there are some people making
decisions if something is useful or not. You like it or not, feel free
to fork its GPL. But do not expect being considered as the messiah just
because you have your own ideas and experience in that matter.

Sorry for my poor English.
