The latest example is all the debate surrounding whether or not the "glasgow" name is appropriate. Up until about a week or two ago, it certainly was accepted practice (just look around), and now 'suddenly' there's messiness. Its ok if opinions change (we had a loooong debate a few years ago about "geronimo" as a name and that made it), but it must be very confusing.
Perhaps we should have two mailing lists.
WDYT?
Mea culpa. I made the mistake of provoking a debate on name policy within the Glasgow threads. This, with hindsight, was wrong. I should have started a new thread and used Glasgow as an example instead. I understand that this must have confused and pissed off the Glasgow folks. Please believe that this was never my intention. If I was having a go at anyone it was at the incubator's ASF folks who are much more immune to this kind of random venting in any case. I suppose I expected my voice to be largely ignored, not to whip up a mailstorm. Glasgow folks, please accept my appologies for being a bit ham fisted about the way I did that. d. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
