Thanks for the link. After reading that, I'm very suprised to see this for the 'Perhaps' category - given that every Linux distro other than Debian falls into that group:

    We think Ruby works on it, however, we do not care about it.
    I sometimes release Ruby even if there are issues on it.
The release part I get, but "we do not care about it" seems awfully dismissive. Maybe it came out differently than it was meant.

I suspect that part of what you are percieving as tone in these statements is an artifact of english not being the author's first language.
