Some people were writing that Soren's questions are a "useless waste
of time", so I wanted to chime in that I think his questions seem
valid. Personally I never heard about XLibre before Wojciech's email,
despite reading LWN weekly and usually being "in the know" about FOSS
stuff. So far the two links above are the only references to an
explanation. As Jonas pointed out, it seems mostly like typical
discussion of CoCs, so who and why some are persona non grata is still
unclear to me. The inner circle of Debian might know all of this, but
regular DDs like me and Soren might have never heard about it.

However, as the topic seems sensitive, I don't expect to see this
explained on this mailing list, but rather on other forums where DDs
feel safer sharing, and I wouldn't insist on getting more replies
here.
