> I just wanted to point out how poisonous our community is. It's something that I've been struggling with for a long time, and trying to slowly change (from inside the python community).

Do you mean to say that the Python community is poisonous? Or that the Ruby community is poisonous from the perspective of a Python community member?

I didn't put too much weight on whether it was Python or Ruby. I felt it was a statement about the whole open source community rather than a particular group.

Yea, that. The python bit was just a side note.

I went ahead and removed the python part, as it didn't really contribute to the message.
