I was referring to CalyxOS doing signing over LineageOS which does not (in any useful way), as the two popular operating systems that happen to share a lot of hardware compatibility overlay with GrapheneOS (but admittedly little else in common).

The one point I will take that is fair is to stop trying to diagnose you as that is not my background or place to do. We will likely continue to have wildly different accounting of the same events and the motivations of those involved, but it is on me to not lower my communication standards when dealing with people I find to be extra difficult or extra wrong. Point taken.

I apologize for any and all assumed medical diagnosis related comments about you and I commit to stop making these as I am not qualified to make them. I will also discourage those comments in my communities as I can. We should be better than that.

What I can and will repeatedly say is that you are obsessively defensive about GrapheneOS to the point that all criticism of it or your communication style or use of your code in related projects is regarded as a coordinated attack or harassment campaign when it is simply a lot of people who have independently found your personality impossible to work with in spite of making useful code. So much so that many have taken steps to actively fork things away from you so they do not have to deal with you because your approach puts -their- mental health and desire to work on related code at risk.

This is a real shame things went this way, because so few doing hard and important security work also have strong interpersonal skills.

I am going to try to do better here, and I hope you do the same. It is unlikely we ever be friends but I hope we reach a point where we can make use of ideas or code each other might have been involved in without drama. I am even considering adding hardened_malloc as an optional package in stagex because I still feel this is great work.

I will stay out of threads on your projects unless about something I am actively working on or working with, but I will continue to share my own view of shared events and my issues with trust structures in current Android efforts, including GrapheneOS and your leadership style, when they come up organically by others in my communities.

I hope you are able to take that for the win that it is.
