Sorry, I'm not trying to complain about it, and I've read the motivation for the change, and I understand it. I wouldn't want the people who advocated it to infer some of us are ungrateful; this is a huge system, and having worked on both Sage & some other systems, I've come to appreciate some of the hard work & good decisions that have gone into Sage. Plus, I've seen how some have been making changes to improve it. That said, I'm relieved for the +1. I was actually worried that it would be highlighted as an example of the tone we don't want. :-) > Was this mentioned when the speaker was publicly speaking? > I'd say semi-public; i.e., it was after a talk, but there was still a small crowd. From the entire context, I'd also say the speaker thinks well of Sage; this particular comment seemed off-the-cuff, and not at all meant in a negative way; it was just a data point to help the listener understand, so to speak. john perry -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
