I once was talking to one of the household-name DNS guys and asked what he thought about djbdns and he said something along the lines of: "It's unfortunate that he's so abrasive, because he has some really great ideas that nobody will listen to because of it."
I've more recently come a little bit to terms with this whole abrasive thing being a brain chemistry artifact, and not just being an asshole for assholes sake. Because it seems to disproportionately impact those of us in the technical field. Not to excuse it, but to understand it.
