OK, wait just a minute there, Marco.

This developer is a F/OSS guru and has contributed tons to the Linux 
community.  Your escalating this to the brass at Novell can easily cause a 
pretty minor issue to get blown way out of proportion.  So for all of his 
hard work you might very well cause him serious trouble.  Is that how you 
reward a guy who has done so much for Linux and Open Source?

This is stupid.  He used a bad word.  Who cares?  Get over it!  Don't go out 
of your way to make the guy's life Hell.  I for one hope that the folks at 
Novell will see that this is really a non-issue.
