Thaddeus, I think that you've made a terrible mistake with the mail you've sent. You've reacted with anger, mixing your own experiences with those that you had just read in a piece of mail. James Troup may be guilty of many things, but I believe he was not the reason why Joey decided to resign as SRM. Maybe if you let a couple of hours go, you'll realize that your reaction was rushed and that you should have put a bit more of rational thought in the mail you were writing. For the next time, it would be better if before asking the DPL to relieve a fellow developer from his duties and making such a big plea as you've made, you'd consider hearing all the different sides of the story, taking into account the many additional factors, and then -and only then- write such a petition. -- Respectfully, Marga
