I just want to go on the record and say that I've found it really disappointing reading the list over the last week.
It seems that there is quite a number people who are very new to it that have just come here to vent in a totally inappropriate manner that goes against all that this list has been about over the years. The great signal-to-noise ratio that everyone lauds has completely tipped off the scale into the negative IMO. I know this is huge news, I know that it feels like a massive kick in the balls and i agree that it's a huge injustice to the software and the people that use and depend on it; but It's telling that so many of the names that made this community (and arguably the software itself) what it is are completely silent or absent from discussions about this. It's obvious that people are upset (myself as well, more than you can imagine) but I feel like I'm reading a forum overrun with spambots... That's my personal reason for being so silent. The saddest thing would be if we can't keep our community coherent. DAN
