But Kanjie Lu, Pakki’s advisor, was one of the authors. The claim that “ You, and your group, have publicly admitted to sending known-buggy patches” may not be totally accurate (or it might be—Pakki could be on other papers I’m not aware of), but it’s not totally inaccurate either. Most academic work is variations on a theme, so it’s reasonable to be suspect of things from Lu’s group.
As Greg KH notes, he has no time to deal with such BS, when suggested to write a formal complain. He has no time to play detectives: you are involved in a group that does BS and this smell like BS again, banned.
Unfair? Maybe: complain to your advisor.
