Which one of us is being democratic and who is /censured/ Palpatin. You
don't want response from others and want to keep everything the way you
like. If you went democratic way and respected work of others, you would
not have this argument with me.

It is not gone. You just want to be that way, because you managed to have
upper hand in pushing your version.

Which ones are controlled by your friends and had translation pushed
against original translator. Maybe R.Kudelis might point at translation he
corrupted and so happy about it.

How much you got from AKL for Lithuanian Gnome?

He also pointed that he does not have to and does not want to. This only
means that he won't remove it. It is OK to accept my work, but it is not
OK, when I raise my voice about unacceptable changes in my work. Which one
of us is being bad guy in this context?

If someone again points are code of conduit, this is personal. You would
act the same way, if someone /censured/ something you are emotionally
attached to. Don't judge others, if you don't want to be judged same way.
