Vinod and Jun:
Your confusion is is my confusion of a few months ago. And your surprise at
Don's attitude is also my surprise. That's the kind of attitude I've been getting
from him for a couple of months now, with strong implications that others feel
that way.
I chose to go public because it got to the point that it interfered with normal
day-to-day development: some, including Don, chose to ignore my technical
recommendations claiming that I had ulterior motives. This is not a good thing
for the open-source development of OpenACS.
Don, once again, you have taken a complex, *private* email of mine and
taken it wholly out of context (when, only 4 weeks ago, you made it clear that
such action is inappropriate when Neophytos requests posting *your* private
email). Not to mention that, as Vinod points out, OF's participation in dotLRN
governance is OF's business and no one else's.
You're asking for OpenForce to "be more humble" in order to "improve" our
relationship with the community, making this assumption that there's
something big to fix. I'm okay with that if you can tell me: what did we do to
hurt our relationship with the community in the first place? What is your beef
exactly? What is this big thing we have to fix? Please point to actions we've
done that have hurt the community and I will be more than happy to address
them.
