<div>I fail to see how they could bring "disrepute" to it.since
these files were clearly *PERSONAL* and *NON-ASSOCIATED TO THE

<div>No, right now I'm too fucking pissed off by your zealotry to

<font face="Calibri">I understand your frustration</font><font
face="Calibri"><font face="Calibri">, Normand, but I hope </font>you
will continue to contribute to the project. It's important work
and your contributions, and those of the community as a whole, are
extremely valuable.<br>
<br>
May I suggest a reading of [ETHICALREPO] so that you may see that
"zealotry" is an unfair categorisation: github (and others)
exhibit problems that have a real impact on freedom.<br>
<br>
You should of course have the freedom to publish your personal
design files wherever you wish, but the files in question
represent, in some way, your contribution to a public project. As
such, consideration must be given to the goals of the project and
the ideals that underpin it.<br>
<br>
Please keep up your good work! The success of the project depends
on contributions like yours.<br>
