Just as a matter of curiosity, whom are you representing under the term *we*?


The Avalon team as a whole.


And just so I understand, where does this authority to represent the interests and opinions of the Avalon team as a whole come from?


Steve, give us a break, will you? >:-|


Sorry - a break from what?

If others disagree, they will say so. If not, Berin effectively represents us, as he is summarising what we have said in all previous discussions.


Umm, I'm a little confused - perhaps you can help me out.

Berin is the current Chair of the PMC - in that position he may present information to the Apache Board reflecting the decisions reached by the PMC and this community through a process of voting on motions that are raised. Outside of this administrative function, Berin is a committer like you and I. In that capacity he does not have the right to assert the position of the Avalon community without such a vote backing that position. As far as I recall there has not been a vote on the subject of the release of the Merlin platform. As such I'm just a tad confused as to where this new-found authority comes from.

Till you keep this infantile confrontational attitude, it's *impossible* to work with you, hence I suggest Berin to stop this discussion altogether till your mails will become reasonable again and concentrate the energy in better ways.


As far as attitude is concerned, I though I was being "inquisitive" ...

Cheers, Steve.
