I felt that the original message, regarding the "silver spoons" and the uselessness of upgrades, was rather trollish. The intent of this thread was to tell people that might want to upgrade that a new release is available. Many people in the community have been anxiously awaiting said upgrade. Those who do not care about the upgrade can happily go along their way on whatever version they wish but there is no cause to go pissing on people that are interested. Dave responded in a similar fashion to point out the inanity of the offending comment. Perhaps he could have replied in a different fashion but given his long track record of providing stellar help to the CF community, I don't think that his post is really the time for a personal call out.
