I don't know what other people feel, or what else was said in the email or the circumstances, but I think I'd be pretty pissed off right now if I found someone posting my private email to a public mailing list, especially stuff that could be construed as detrimental to the view held by others of my work even if I said it myself.
I would be asking permission to quote him when putting stuff on a website. (Perhaps this has all already been sorted, so ignore this email if it has...) </2c>, Paul On Sat, Jan 26, 2002 at 07:07:04AM +0000, Dave Cross wrote: > aka "The Kraken Wakes" > > I've got email from Matt Wright.
