DHH didn't refer to foreign-born because that's not what he was talking about. I made it very clear in the article that this is a perfectly valid definition of "native": "living or growing naturally in a particular region : indigenous".
You are not even trying to understand what DHH is saying.
This is the problem with modern discourse: people don't even listen. You don't care what DHH meant, all you care about is the hedges on speech you want to impose on others.
Every rational person knows what happens to a city when there's a massive influx of immigrants. So we all know what he is talking about, and it's not what you wrongly assumed.
There is Rust support and there is a couple of small drivers, that's about it.
The decision being disputed is not going to be affected by the shenanigans of Hector Martin, the process is going to be followed as usual.
David Airlie summarized it nicely:
> That is the process we are committed to, everyone has a voice and gets to be heard, and we move forward in the appropriate manner with each maintainer. Bypassing maintainers is the last resort, not engaging at all with maintainers isn't a productive way forward either. Your below attempt is trying to create a technical solution to a social problem.
So the technical discussion is going to continue in order to attempt consensus and the leadership (i.e. Linus Torvalds) is going to step in only if no consensus is achieved. He is waiting for the discussion to play out.
Everyone is going to be heard, including maintainers who openly admit they don't want Rust in linux.
Many people are arguing that the Linux Foundation had no choice but remove the Russian maintainers due to USA sanctions. That is not true. They had choices, and here I explain why.
The point of debates it not to convince your interlocutor. Not a single debate in history has ended in the other side changing their position.
The point is to convince the audience, and if you think no audience would consider the notion of a flat Earth possible, you underestimate human stupidity.
Everything should be up for debate, otherwise ideas become -- as John Stuart Mill called them: dead dogma.
