If you aren't able to take your responsabilities for your actions or words, this probably means you're not enough mature to be a maintainer. If you are sure to be a victim, publish your logs, i'll be happy to publish mine. > 3) I guess this whole stuff was converted to gramatically > correct Italian, possibly meaning something slightly > different from the text in (2), definately something > else than what I wanted to say. The interview was translated to italian by a highly qualified person. Anyway, both italian and english interviews are on the web, i'm sure Andrea, or whoever, will be happy to tell you if anything was changed.
