I my defence, I do think most of my vinegar-ish points still stand even if I possibly didn't take time to phrase them with much tact. And in truth, for quite a long time, I was on the very point of leaving MLO due to the issues raised. Plus if nothing else though, through my fresh eyes, I was if nothing else being entirely honest and hopefully constructive. Also I was coming from GTDNext who have a very different culture and are hugely good a communicating with their customers in an open, rapid and enormously friendly manner (and who have made remarkable process for quite a small team as a result). I have now invested quite a lot of person time in MLO and am now not likely to jump ship immediately. So yes, fair point - I promise to be perhaps more polite & measured going forward.
