In response: I know you didn't start the thread. I know you didn't start the thread.
The problem I see is with talking about how you are sick of people talking about something. By talking about it on an open forum, you become part of the very problem you are complaining about. You are opening up more avenues for conversation about the subject, thereby further aggravating the problem. This is regardless of whether or not you are signed to an NDA. As far as you not wanting to see these big threads about NDAs / betas / etc., just don't read the thread. I ignore lots of threads posted by people on this list that go on for days and hundreds of posts because I find them disinteresting. You should feel free to ignore them just the same. I'm sorry if I said anything to offend, but that's not what I intended. You didn't do anything wrong, you just added to the problem you were complaining about. And you seem completely unaware of the fact you are doing so, or convinced you could not be doing that because the thread is now about your innermost feelings about a subject instead of the subject itself (which is just splitting hairs, since many people are casual email readers at best).

I didn't start the thread. I didn't start the thread. I didn't continue the thread in an inappropriate list. I didn't ask inappropriate questions about it, nor did I make any statement of supposed fact that would lead people to correct me. I had a burr under my saddle and got it out. As far as you not wanting to hear me bellyache, just don't read the thread. I ignore lots of threads you post on because they don't interest me. I don't ask you to quit talking about these things. I just don't read the threads. Feel free to ignore this one. I'm sorry if my posting bugged you -- that wasn't it's intent. But, quite frankly, I don't feel I did anything wrong. -- Ben Doom Programmer & General Lackey Moonbow Software, Inc : -----Original Message----- : From: Haggerty, Mike [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] : Sent: Monday, July 07, 2003 12:47 PM : To: CF-Community : Subject: RE: RedSky discussions : : : Yeah, but that certainly makes it harder for people in the beta not to : comment. : : I am clear on the status of those who are not covered by the NDA.
