Wo wir schon bei der Bewertung der Arbeit sind, möchte ich noch auf die tölpelhafte Verwendung nicht typografisch korrekter, angloamerikanischer Anführungszeichen hinweisen. Vorbildlich wäre die Verwendung der Makros \glqq
und \grqq
beziehungsweise nach dem Einbinden der deutschen Sprache mittels \usepackage[ngerman]{babel}
die folgende Schreibweise: "`..."'

Oh yes, an update would be really interesting! (Even though I agree with @sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works in all points.)
My opinion on this whole topic: I don’t like the decision, a Free Software project should only prevent people from contributing in very rare occasions (e.g. having actively tried to sabotage the project). I don’t think this was the case, because I presume that the Linux Foundation was forced by the U.S. government to kick the maintainers out. The should’ve also communicated more clearly to prevent the confusion. (Russian trolls will cry out no matter how they phrased that.)
Edit: Depending on their power as a maintainer, they might be hired by intelligence and forced to just wave a backdoor through. With the Russian government waging a hybrid war against the U.S. and Europe, this poses a real problem.
Another Edit: @Allero@lemmy.today mentioned that apart from Russia, the U.S., Israel and China also have a very well funded intelligence service. So banning Russian maintainers because of a potential backdoor when there are American maintainers (which could be agents) as well? I don’t think it makes sense, but unfortunately the Linux Foundation won’t be able to resist the “complience requirements”.
So so. Können wir mit dieser Begründung auch OpenAI und Co. verklagen, die mit ihren Webscrapern urheberrechtswidrig die Programmiercodes von Webseiten verändern? Mal ehrlich: sogar das FBI empfiehlt den Einsatz von Ad-Blockern. Außerdem sollten wir die nützlichen Helfer lieber Malware-Blocker nennen, denn genau das ist Werbung heutzutage meist.
