Do you actually know Jerry? He is one of the most polite and least rude people
I have ever met.
I am afraid that once again, it is your response here, rather than anyone
else's, which, if anything, is rude. I cannot see anywhere on this thread where
Jerry is being rude to you. This is at least the third time in six months that
you have harshly criticised people or projects on the mailing lists. Do you not
actually understand that this might offend people? If you don't like a project,
or aspects of a person's personality, then fine - slag it/them off down the pub
to your friends - but please, not on a public mailing list. Do you actually not
understand that randomly slagging things off on public mailing lists is rude?
Sorry if this response sounds strident but I think it has to be said.

It's disappointing that many people within OSM like sk53 are too weak to
take criticism or so arrogant as to believe they are above it (There was
one user who's arrogance led him to believe he was entitled to tell
users to close down their twitter accounts!). My criticisms were
explained, justified & on topic (to his post), not ad-hominem.
