Sexist, homophobic, etc. speech or behavior is less and less tolerated in most serious office environments, not least because it opens up a company to harassment lawsuits. That being the case, I wonder what all the very big serious companies that sponsor the Linux Foundation think about the level of harassment that is apparently tolerated in the communities they sponsor.
- chris_wot 11y agoNot sure why you are being down voted, I have often wondered this myself. Also, I just posted a link to HN about things preventing up streaming in embedded Linux, I'd say that there are some fairly bad issues preventing people from submitting patches.
- easuter 11y agoI find it strange that Sarah Sharp makes accusations of sexist and homophobic jokes but provides no examples. The mailing list is public after all - should we just take her word for it?
