Frank is not lying. You did _not_ address the problems.

You have repeatedly shown why _in_your_opinion_ invariant sections make
sense, without touching on the problems (fwiw, I think they make sense,
but the problems outweight the benetis).

Passing your opinion as truth and banning other opinions as "absurd",
up to stating that the Debian position is "absurd by all logical
means"[1], and addressing your party with "you simply invent absurd lies"[2]
makes no good to anyone. There are different opinions out there, but
they are _all_ opinions. Nobody is lying when expressing an opinion,
so please stop replying yo each and every mail just to have your points
and attacks[3] repeated over and over.

As Simo Sorce suggested, let's agree to disagree and stop this useless
thread. BTW, you agreed to disagree about semantics quite some time
ago[4], so why are we still wasting everyone's time?
