Curt, you are very diplomatic. I've read Shad's note several times. Having been involved with this community and project for over ten years, and having reviewed Shad's previous messages, and also having been involved in other FOSS projects over the years, and knowing who is involved in this project, and the calibre of the individuals involved, all I can say is that if Shad really wanted to be a mature and effective FOSS advocate he would have tried to be diplomatic and point out where we have been impolite. Instead, we got self-inflated credential-dropping and a "ready, fire, aim" stone-throwing incident. I'd guess that if Shad had a good hard look at the credentials of the flightgear community of users and developers who have been working together effectively for years, he might be a bit embarrassed at having jumped the gun. Shad owes this community an apology. Jon ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
