> I'm very disturbed to see that interaction misleadingly presented as a deviation from the safe space policy

Yes, I agree. But I also think that could be cleared up fairly easily with a proper reply from the FSF.

For the record: I wasn't involved in the letter nor do I know anything about it aside from the link @cwebber posted. So I could be missing some important context. I just made the unfortunate decision of jumping into a heated topic. :) I'd just like to see something as simple as this be resolved without things being left to simmer. Frankly, it's somewhat upsetting that this letter didn't receive an immediate, affirmative reply. We don't need distractions like these when we should be able to focus on what unites us.

I'm sure other things have compounded the frustration as well (e.g. recent discussions within GNU).
