There are those with merit, and those with increasing or decreasing fractions of merit, and those with no merit. Then there are those who literally have negative merit, the amount they have contributed to the foundation is literally insufficient to cover the aggrivation which they have caused to the foundation. This is a rare case, but your litany's to this list come dangerously close to that line. The chair is a founder of the Apache Group, one of 8 who thought that it would be cool to come together and collect patches to improve open source software, one who helped form the foundation, one who served as it's secretary for almost a decade and one who has chaired both the board and the prc for several years. That isn't authority, that is an investment of energy and effort, and demonstrates merit. I'm sorry you still can't make this connection, I believe I'm done trying to point you in the right direction. The most appropriate resolution is likely to consider you persona non grata to the entire community, and if you would like a vote on this matter, this list would be happy to oblige.

Respects (Re: ApacheCon at ASIA)
Tetsuya, you have show the utmost lack of respect on this forum to the chairman of the organization, who in the most friendly and forgiving way attempted to nudge you away from inappropriate directions. Noone else in this organization is so flexible. So your complaint falls on deaf ears. The Apache Software Fundation's rule - there is no relationships between superior and inferior. I mean, hierarchy. (bureaucratism is one of them) Maybe I had been wrongly taken introduction by POI founder and Cocoon/Forrest founder to the weird road from 2003. (oh, 6 years --- long way) I have thought that merit will never disappear and it remain forever. Over the threshold, you will have an invitation for membership of the Apache Software Foundation as individual. Thank you very much to Bill and #chair#, that IT was a wrong way you told me clearly. About the respect upon #chair#, I wrote clearly in PRC list and private lists. I will not say again. Miscommunication. Thank you very much. Mucho Gracias.
