Clark, sorry to be blunt, but you're talking through your arse!
you make some v. wild statements and offer no justification for them: i can only conclude that the application you refer to in fact suffered from the same flawed methodology... if you can be bothered, i would be interested to know exactly what it is you mean by the following: 1. "Zope has lost all of the advantages of being a freeware product" 2. "the extreme commercialization of Zope is hurting Zope" 3. "these issues [bugs] are kept strictly confidential" how is it you go about "reclaiming" something that was never yours? garry On 30 Nov 2001, at 10:03, Clark OBrien wrote: From: Clark OBrien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [Zope-dev] Zope has been Hijacked!
