RE: [flexcoders] Re: All the bunch of idiots at Adobe, please note!

2006-04-19 Thread Steven Webster
Guys,

I think everyone is pretty clear on this situation here, and the
community is almost unanimous in recognising that this thread was
inappropriate discussion.  It's not on the topic of flexcoders, so can I
please ask people that we move on from this thread and return to
"flexcoding".

Best wishes,

Steven

2006-04-19 Thread Marc Archuleta
I have met John Bennett and have found him to be very
friendly and helpful. I personally know that he has
gained the respect of at least a few successful J2EE
authors in my community. I also know he is a very busy
person who is constantly traveling to meet with
customers around the country in addition to working
closely with his colleagues. 

The only thing that I can possibly even begin to
imagine that would be the source of your malcontent
may be culturally related. John is from the east coast
and the culture of the east coast leans toward being
short and to the point. I know this cultural mannerism
can sometimes be frustrating for people who haven't
spent time on the east coast. However, busy people
working in the commercial market throughout the US can
be short when communicating. As a busy person, I
appreciate working with people who understand what I
am saying before I finish my sentence and can respond
succinctly. I have found that even when John was quick
and to the point, he was not short with me and he
still was very courteous.

My feedback is just one persons point of view and I
know that since I was not present in the meeting that
I cannot necessarily say exactly what happened, but I
hope this may help bring some perspective to the
situation. More importantly, I hope this feedback can
be helpful to those on the list who work with a wide
variety of people on a daily basis.

Sincerely,
Marc

I am not the admin of the Flexcoders list (although 
I believe he has spoken and asked us to be civil.) I think we should all respect 
his wishes, and instead of continuing this thread, take it offlist where it 
belongs. T_msready, in the interests of resolving this, please speak privately 
to Adobe. This thread brings no benefit to the rest of the list.
 
Others have commented on the lack of 
professionalism of this thread... I will let them speak for me.

  i have worked with brian o'conner and several other adobe consulting 
  developers (and some are still here) for a very large company. i have always 
  found them extremely helpful, more than that, exceptionally helpful and open 
  to new concepts. i think the way you have reacted is not only over the top but 
  is extremely unprofessional. for all we know your code could have been 
  horrible or great, you could have accidentally said "i am using viewhelper 
  value objects". furthermore the review took place over breeze, hence you have 
  no idea how it sounded on the other side. you should have kept this internal 
  imo.

All due respect, but you posted this while completely hiding behind
your e-mail address. If you're so adamant about your experience and
want to make a public statement about the quality of Adobe Consulting,
I think you'd receive a bit more respect (even if they vehmently
disagree) if you were to provide your name. You saw fit to put the
engineers' names into the public domain, so why are you hiding behind
"t_msreddy"? I have no experience with Adobe Consulting; they really
could stink for all I know. But I can't really seriously consider
anything you wrote when "t_msreddy" is all anybody knows about the
source of the accusations.

Regards,
Dave.
