You’re a nice guy, it’s all forgiven for.

That's so magnanimous of you. Would you mind explaining what it is you need to forgive here? By the way, have you by any chance contacted Jimmi Hugh and asked for his forgiveness as well? And David Sleschinger as well? What about all those "bribed" journalists? The owners and employees of companies who became a target of your smears because they have someone who used to work at Microsoft on their staff? Just wondering.

Anirudh,

Don’t worry about it. You’re a nice guy, it’s all forgiven for. We all happen to write things we later regret. It doesn’t change one’s character.

oops, typo in my comment.

I’ve been contributing to MD even *before* I took up my summer internship.

All my code is on github/ninjagod and is licensed under MIT/X11

“Another person, who describes himself as an “intern at Microsoft [who is] writing an extension to the MonoDevelop project,” has just written about this. “Fuck you, Richard Stallman,” screams the headline of his blog post where he complains about Stallman’s stance on Mono”

I have been contributing to monodevelop even I took up a small research internship at MS, and do so in my own time. This article takes my *disclaimer* out of context and makes it look like MS is directly involved. My day job involves some experimental language translation, that’s all.
I even have a summer of code project with mono.

Unfortunately, this seems to be Roy’s brand of justice, which I guess I deserved because I made some personal attacks against him which wasn’t right.

Atleast I learned to stop writing opinions and stick to writing code.

Would you mind pointing to the sections that you consider to be out of context. Would you mind putting these sections into context so that we can understand your point.

HA! While he’s at it, he can remove Jimmi Hugh’s name from that wikipedia “article”. Roy doesn’t have a human side.

Hello,

Please please please modify this article. It has been taken out of context and I contribute to open source outside my day job. I wrote the article only because I was feeling hurt about the whole issue.

I contribute because I like the project and have been doing so before I even got my internship. Taking it out of context will hurt my involvement in my community as well as in my company. I’m a lowly intern in the Indian Research lab, that’s all.

Please do not hurt my career by taking this out of context. I appeal to your human side to modify it.

Thank you,
Anirudh

Here is the link you petulantly didn’t want to include in your post. Thanks for providing the title

And look, your attack troll and nymshifter-en-masse “twitter” is already there, shilling the “Roy rocks” line as usual. His “foul-mouthed” rants are legend on Slashdot as well. I take it you’ve never had the pleasure of reading them.

The author of the blog even bothered to reply, wow. Did you send anyone else? He needs to be warned, especially if a few other of the BoycotBoys are going to show up as usual to troll his blog.
