I have noticed that posts that discuss Automatix are locked and that no discussion is allowed. The most recent being a discussion about the ethical nature of having Automatix installed in Ubuntu CE.
The Ubuntu CE discussion about Automatix was dealing with its ethics in using a application that may be doing illegal things in a Christian distribution. The discussion was in the Ubuntu CE 3rd party sub section. The topic (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=251004)was locked stating that technical discussions had already been done before. But this topic was not on the technical merits.
But there are other threads I have seen that have been locked dealing with Automatix. Is the discussion of this piece of software that was originally a Ubuntu 3rd party project not against the rules? If so why is there no rule stating this posted?
