What is dishonest is using words like "dishonnest" agains me.

I did not accuse you with such bird names before you did here publicly.

I've just used my own right to reply with my opinion because you have
(over)used your own right to ive your own by asking others to boycott
becaise explaining what was wrong, and by shortcutting onagoinf discussions
that you don't want to point to in your call.

Yes what you are posting is an order because you don't provide links to
your statements, and don't respect the NPOV.

I have already saif that I understood your feeling but I've saif this was
the wrong method and that your boycott was just overreacting.

Reread yourself, you are asking others to stop performing some unrelated
work in Wikimedia. Even if this is a formof protest, this is not the
correct form when the protest does not come with a place for discussions.
So yes you call is felt like an order, and even more because you have ad
iertized it in multiple places with the same call to boycott in reactio nto
somthing that you have expereienced yourself (and only you).

For others that could read this message, look at the RfC linked in News
from the Home page of MetaWiki. This is enough. and this is is the
papropriate place to discuss this issue (and you can't say you ignore it,
given that you have posted there too). We don't need to read that in
multiple mailing lists

And most translators are NOT concerned by the subject of your boycott
(meaning that it is simply inappropriate).
