I can't see any personal attack to anybody, no personal offence, no derision or trolling. I personally can't see any objective reason why anybody should decide to leave this ML (I have read all the emails sent in the last 10 days, without finding anything offensive). I have just seen several discussions, centered on both technical and phylosophical issues, with many different people participating and making clear their opinions, and maybe keeping them throughout and after the discussion, which is usually normal in a mature and democratic environment. I don't have any problems with the views expressed by T.J., unless you see as a problem the fact that I have sometimes criticised them (in a direct way, which is just something I can't do differently), and I think that nobody else has any problems either with T.J. or with you or with me or with anybody else. We are discussing, and more often than not discussing does not imemdiately mean "agreeing" :) But again this is normal, especially if the aims of the participants are very similar, but not identical. I am sorry, but I can't see anything strange in this....
