I think you're a bit confused here. Please refer to how danieloaks himself commented, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28505861 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28505861 >It's totally fair to make that link, but I very explicitly told everyone over at LTM/H (including PIA and Handshake) that Oragono/Ergo and ircdocs were not work projects in any way. And while I was working on Shells.com, I was very explicit that I wouldn't be touching any IRC stuff for money while there. ... But yeah, it's definitely good to be wary of these kinda links, given what happened to snoo's and fn/libera's team. I wanted to know what was going on and I didn't want to accuse him of anything since, like it turned out, he was aware of Andrew Lee's behavior and took proactive actions to prevent legal exposure to him. This wasn't some smear campaign. This was me worrying about a dude that worked at 3 different Andrew Lee IRC companies while developing Ergo and prominently displayed them on his website linked from the Ergo page. It's an issue he himself said he was careful about and worth addressing. After he cleared the air I even tried joining the IRC server to check it out. I know you have to be proactive too to prevent personal attacks but I think in this case you're a bit off the mark.

Just because the targets of your uninformed smear showed up to defend themselves and were super-gracious about it doesn't mean uninformed smears are ok. They don't owe you a 'clearing of the air', you owe them an apology.

  Uniformed? Tell me what part of what I said was factually incorrect. The only smear going on right now is from you and dang. When was the last time either of you used IRC? It seems like you're going off surface level appearances here without understanding any of the context. This was an issue that had to be addressed for anyone from the IRC community to take Ergo seriously.
