The overall speech contains many known trolls « weapons », e.g. :

Nonsense, obviously, as discussions lists and forums are based on 
questions and replies. A post to a list that wouldn't generate
replies would indicate a dead list, and Digikam community seems
well alive and active. (Perhaps the software isn't as « Big brother »
as it could seem at first glance:-)

Another classical troll behaviour, loving to count how many messages
could be sent before being banned from a forum.

probably not use a mailing portal as AOL that dispatch to everyone's
knowledge their originating IP, thus allowing user localization
