The emotional sentences you are refereing to were written before we decided on
the official statement,
due to a lack of such statement at the time. Later on I added the parts from
the official statement, leaving
the old parts online.
Reading those lines now does indeed look quite emotional. All that it needs is
a little edit from someone who
cares. James for example already spent some time cleaning up most of the
emotional stuff to something less
emotional :)
This might be an example of a wiki article that requires
special-group-permission for edits...
Once this "updated" official statement is released, I'll make sure to update
the wiki (correctly this time). The wiki
does come up high in Google, for example:
http://www.google.com/search?q=flightprosim I believe this is (one
of) the reason(s) that it is now being sold under a new name...

Well, being so open, the wiki also has a lot of "moderators". So complete
rubbish is taken out pretty quickly. With
important pages being locked, those abusive articles won't be very visible (due
to the nature of a wiki). Without being
referenced in other articles, you'll have to put quite an effort in searching
for it...
Cheers,
