And that's my beef my Branden. I do appreciate his work as a maintainer, but he's overly brash in his interactions with other people. As the DPL is exposed to a lot of public attention, I think Branden's personality is not suited to the position. That's very unfortunate because I think his energy would bring a lot of good things to the helm of the project. Hi Branden :-) Flame on!
