You are 100% correct in these criticisms and concerns about Activity Central. We are a new company working in a new market. Failures and mistakes are inevitable. If you have been hurt by those mistakes, I apologize and accept full responsibility for them. As a company and as a member of the ecosystem we are going to make mistakes. In a proprietary company these failures happen safely behind closed doors in the R&D department. In a company that participates openly in an community project these failures will happen publicly -- often painfully so. That is just the nature of the business. There is a very good chance that for each Dextrose there will be 10 Ubuntu Sugar Remixes. david _______________________________________________ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
