Scott,
As much respect as I have for Robert, and I do, he isn't perfect as we
all know. We aren't either. Reminds me of a story.. Mother having a
baby. In distress. Country doctor can't be found. He finally shows up,
sees the situation acts quickly and it seems everything was resolved. A
few days later, the mother died of the disease the doctor was treating
at the home prior to arriving to deliver the baby. The father became
angry and more angry. This doctor should have been more careful. He
should not be allowed to practice. A terrible wrong had been committed
and he needed to pay for it.
One day, this man's spiritual leader offered this council. "John, leave
it alone. Nothing you can do will bring her back. Everything you do
will only make it worse. John, leave it alone." Many years later, the
bereaved father said, "I was an old man before I could see. I was an
old man before I saw a country doctor, over worked underpaid, saving
lives for the most part, with few tools and implements. I would have
ruined his life and my own, except for the wise counsel of my spiritual
leader, "John, leave it alone."
As angry as I have been over how poorly I have been treated by Phil at
times and their company for a long time now, at this point, when all
reasonable approaches have been tried and efforts exhausted, my giving
this injustice any energy only would hurt me. It would take away from
productive pursuits I am involved in. Why hurt them? Because I have
been hurt? So I suggest, "Leave it alone. Let it die a quiet death in
our lives." Perhaps he has found a new market in China we don't know
about. Whatever his reason for his inaction and lack of communication,
let's just leave it alone and remember the good times and enjoy the
relationships we developed. Let's just leave Phil alone.
I know from personal experience that sometimes, you just have to walk
away, mourn the loss and then move on. In time, you get over it, the
hurt I mean. As for Robert, this has led to a very very profitable
change to Zend and PHP. Others as well. If that is all it did, isn't
that really good enough? Part of a process. Nothing more nothing less?
I suppose this pontificating may not be appreciated by all. Sorry if it
offends.

Robert,
Witango may be a dead product, but that doesn't mean that someone isn't
still in legal control of the licensing.
To openly publish license keys is a unprofessionally stupid move in my
opinion.

So I have a bunch of request for keys. I
don't have a problem sharing them, the product seems obviously dead.
And the people asking are asking for seemingly good reasons, and they
are what I would consider respected members of this group.
So I get one response, "that key didn't
seem to work", etc. I would rather not have to give tech support of
this issue. So, I will post all of my witango keys up by the end of the
week. I give to the end of the week in case someone at witango inc
wants to wake up and tell all these people looking for answers
something. If I don't here anything from witango, I am just going to
post all of my keys, and I am sure some others will follow suit.
So will the food left at the dungeon door
be eaten?
