Except that I was paying attention, and I read those posts with interest. My standing point is that we only got those statements for -core members because this conversation was kicked off by our troll. It was probably only a matter of time before someone noticed what had happened and posted to -chat, but there was more than 24-hours between the commit being made and someone noticing. It would be better IMHO if -core had simply made a statement at the time - I feel that much, but certainly not all, of this thread would have been avoided.
