Taking criticism is a part of leadership, and every OGB member can 
handle that. However, the OpenSolaris community has clearly crossed the 
line, and some OGB members didn't deserve to be attacked like they were. 
Just as many other community members inside and outside Sun have been 
attacked. We need to start calling out the flamers and attackers and 
start kicking them out of the community. They should have no voice here. 
If we can't have civil discussions we don't deserve a community. Period. 
We should also dump Jive and moderate opensolaris-discuss. Or even 
delete opensolaris-discuss. I'll be all over the candidates on these 
issues. And more.
