This response is way out of control.

Fabio has been the mainstay of our Brazillian community for many years
-- at least as long as you've been involved with Postgres.

It's one thing to request that something be taken down; it's another
thing entirely to launch a vicious attack on the motives and integrity
of another community member.

Your words were entirely unjustified and clearly aimed at harming Fabio.
There are "blatantly negative actions" here, but I'm afraid they're yours.
