I don't see anything wrong with the tweets. I don't think Rod is a bad person, he's been involved with Node.js for years.

Try working on an open source project for 5 years and then we can talk about altruism.

I don't think there's anything wrong with the tweets too. And it seems the Node Technical Steering Committee had similar thoughts, since they rejected the proposal of expelling Rod.

The 60%/40% split on both proposed sanctions indicates that the TSC had no simple unified view of the type you infer.

Some people think and others just react, it's good to know that the majority of people on the Node.js technical committee are thinkers.

Wow, that's an incredibly rude and narrow-minded comment.

Why "rude"?

It's rude to suggest that the Yes-voters are non-thinkers.

I'm pretty sure that's exactly what the people forking Node here are trying to do, though perhaps not with a particular time limit.
