Geoff He has done a good bit of shooting also and IMHO for his personal satisfaction first leaving aside the needs of the users who have rallied to his call and invested in the Qx0 series, time and real cash! Its also no suprise that now when he appears some people thoughtlessly continue to shoot first. No matter how talented Peter is he needs a critical mass of interest and support as much as other developers interested in more PC orientated QL things. Those in this other camp desperately need his talents and area of focus hence the shots.
It is past time to bury hatchets and act like adults. Those with most status have most to gain by bending a little. Those who may have to concede a little need to realise that not every conflict is decided by a single battle. A step back today does not meet loss forever or oblivion for a final vision. In a dialogue one concession needs to be matched with another. The World is a funny place. Send flames if you wish. I advise asbestos suits if you do.

Don't forget that after his last contribution to this list two people told him he was not welcome and only one defended him. He is not there to be switched on an off as we want. If you want information from Peter, why don't you email him privately? I had an extensive correspondence with him over QL2004 without any problems.
