who are the nice guys and why are they not ready to
come out on the list. Creative is a volunteer effort
and nowhere any sponsership was discussed. Web space
provider was supposed to be sponseror of space.
There is nothing wrong in sponsership but everything
should happen in a transparent manner, hidden "nice
guys" are not accepted to any community. So if we get
sponsers then mailing list should be informed about in
detail. We had accepted sponsership in past and all
teh details were made public and no unilateral
decision was taken about sponsership.
Also, it was made clear to every one involved in
making of creative dot that they can take credit for
their contribution only and was also comunicated to
Tarun by Niyam that we are ready to put a mesage in
footer giving credit to web space provider or company.

Since creative has been announced and everyone knows
about it it makes no sense to discuss things offlist.

if you think only two person are stakeholders, you
are deadly mistaken. Every person who has contributed
initial content is a stakeholder, Niyam and Vivek are
just helping them in getting content online.
If you have are not ready to volunteer for webspace
and want someone to spanser it let us know, we will
move our site from your server.
