I'd say that we now have: Camillo - pissed off to death Ben - same Nico - gone
There is something amiss there. These people are significant contributors and made the system move forward in new and much needed directions (Zeroconf/CommandLine, Spec, Amber). Pissing them off is really a bad approach, no matter why/how/... Get the house in order please and stop the ego trips. Yelling at people/each other just doesn't work and doesn't help. Try that at your cat. Oh, yeah, it helps in pushing great people to other communities... As we needed that. And now, I am feeling sad.
