John, Regardless of the troll vs not troll take. Many people relate rock music with rebellion and not with business. I asked on another thread if the image was a social statement resting in the back of the success of a programming tool. I find it distasteful myself, and the insensitive nature of the image and not putting a better business image makes me wonder if the powers are serious about building community or if this is to become a 60's hippie group where technical advances are social political movements. Hey, it is election year... but seriously 'dude'... do you have enough business sense to focus on the good jQuery can do for the internet or would being 'tollerant' be something you expect but don't offer in return to people who are sensitive to this new image? Tolerance only works if it is offered publically in both directions.
It appears on the site that someone is thinking community rather than social activism. (Now, if we are going to feed the poor, stop genocide or something like that then social activism is great... but the best way to silence this silly debate is to move on.) With that... thanks for moving the picture off the site so we can all move on! THANKS a dozen times over.

Rock music is known for the most part to be associated with devils, demons and sexual immoralities. If one should research the history of they will see the truth behind a lot of these rock groups and the purpose of their music. Can someone please explain the mindset behind linking jQuery to rock music? Is it that everyone one the team is in agreement to the rock music branding? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jQuery Development" group.
