1.   Astricon is a conference and exhibition of "Asterisk" not "Digium".
2.   bkw__ has the right to free speech and his opinon of how "childish" or not Mark Spencer and Digum is or is not.
3.   Corydon-w is dening bkw__'s right to free speech.
4.   Mark Spencer and other Digium employees have no right to ask someone to leave because of a shirt that is within the limits of the dress code of the resturant.
5.   CtRiX has the right to free speech and his opinon of both company's products.
6.   Corydon-w is dening CtRiX's right to free speech.

I would expect a public apology from Mark Spencer/Digium for asking bkw__ to leave the resturant.
I would expect a public apology from Corydon-w to both bkw__ and CtRiX for kicking them off the irc server.
I would expect both bkw__ and CtRiX's irc access to be returned immediatly.

If Corydon-w has moderator access to the irc channel - then a warning to the user is a must. A user cannot be simply kicked because he is saying this or that. If that topic was not appropriate, then the warning should have silenced the issue. Now we have a good chunk of the asterisk comminuty aware of the events that took place. This makes everyone involved look worse.

If I do not see an apology from Mark Spencer and Digium on this list, then I will not be purchasing any more Digium products nor will I publicly contribute any of my conceptual idea's or source code on how to make asterisk better.

This is an open source project, and as such anyone can take and modify or integrate their software and/or hardware with it.

Anyone disagreeing with my view on this can take it up with me directly off-list.
