I think we do appreciate your pov, but I'd like to make a couple points about this.
-) The blog entry you link to had nothing to do with wicket, it was about Tapestry 5 development progress. -) Your user community linked to it and started a discussion about it which you suggest you discourage and yet openly add to the discussion leaving the impression that you agree with the people harassing Howard on his blog. http://www.nabble.com/funny--OT%7D-tf2793504.html#a7793441 -) I agree that this sort of thing is bad for projects in general, but if you think I'm going to sit idly by and watch my friends get torn apart by people for no good reason you are sadly mistaken. -) I don't agree that you can't police your users/community. Leaders lead by example. If you didn't think these actions were appropriate you could just have easily said "while I understand how this might be controversial/etc/whatever I think these feelings are best placed in another medium not in our projects mailing list." A blog is one thing, a project mailing list is quite another. So yes, let's get back to developing. Just remember that "rowdy users" can go both ways.

We'd like to apologize for any bad behavior coming from 'the Wicket community', while at the same time, we'd like to make clear that we can't/ won't police our users, and in this particular case there isn't even any proof the remark was left by someone 'of the community'. Such remarks can best be seen and handled as what they really are: remarks by individuals. Good luck, and let's get back to coding ;) Eelco Hillenius --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
