This surprises me. I rather perceived that discussion as needlessly aggressive and highly confrontational (also when discounting all the external 'contributors'): it even got so far that a resolution was proposed and voted on to depose the chairman. Is this in your opinion really a model for how discussions should be handled? Thijs -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
