I have read the replies to this email, and I am a bit disappointed at the attitudes shown - justified or not. This seems to be a sincere and reasonable suggestion, so my personal reply is simply. "yes, please". Does it really need to be any more complicated than this? I suspect that it was difficult for Jeroen to write that email, so give him a break - and a little credit for being willing to call a truce and take that first step. Jeroen, I am sure you are reading this... Let me make a humble suggestion: Take down the "opinion" page as a sign of good faith. If you are not satisfied that your requests have been honored, then you always have the option of putting it back up. Just something to think about.
