The “Hindering Backchannels Rule” (“HBR”) — formerly called the “Harvey Birdman Rule” — is a Rule that all participants in the copyleft-next project are expected to follow. The HBR is maintained in this separate repository in case other projects eventually would like to use it.
![]() IIRC Karen Sandler criticized the anti-top-posting rule as unduly harsh and exclusionary in http://faif.us/cast/2014/jul/01/0x48/. In practice, this rule was not strictly enforced on the copyleft-next mailing list (and it may be relevant that the free software credentials of the 'violator' in question were impeccable). |
