[Osmf-talk] OSMF membership applications rejected

No, Frederik's approach is a NON-imperialistic answer to the problem. 
 One can ignore a problem (guy), or one may suppress the problem, or one may (try to) understand it.

In my opinion both candidates cannot do any harm to
a democratic project in good health. If the current OSMF need to use
the ultimate weapon, well then they must feel incapable
of dealing with both candidates.. not a position of strength ....

Frederik,

your position is still unclear to me since you are still using the forum. Are you accepting trolls and tolerating these Nazi-statements from a troll? Was your initial mail a proposal how to deal with these statements (shrug away)?

Regards,
Oliver
