[expert] Recognition of Todd Lyons
I want to make an official appeal to the Mandrake management to keep Todd Lyons securely in the company, in the recent light of current events regarding the Chapter 11. Todd Lyons has been an incredible asset to the Expert list, helping countless users with their problems and concerns. It would be a terrible loss to Mandrake and an even more terrible loss to all Mandrake users were anything to happen that would force him to seek other employment. We want him around and we want him to stay. Civileme was a huge asset to all of us here in North America, as well as the rest of the world. We don't want the same thing to happen to Todd Lyons. If this concerns you now is the time to make your support known. Thank you, Todd.

Re: [expert] Recognition of Todd Lyons
Is Todd's job at risk??? Anyway, at work (as customer of Research Development software) I have realized that at least 50% of customer satisfation depends completely on support rather than on the product itself. If Todd is gone I think Mandrake will end losing a BIG amount of users (that would go to other distributions). Without Todd this list may end in another list more as any of the millions in internet... Thank you, Todd.

Re: [expert] Recognition of Todd Lyons
Yes I agree Keeping guys like Todd is paramount to success. 90% of any companies intellectual property can best be found between the left and right ear of it's employee's. As for the Chapter 11 (or rather the French equivalent.) Info can be found http://www.mandrakesoft.com/company/press/briefs?n=/mandrakesoft/news/2405 http://www.ofb.biz/modules.php?name=Newsfile=articlesid=192 and http://newsforge.com/newsforge/03/01/10/2131224.shtml?tid=3 The only other thing I can say is... People keeps copies of the code. The thought of being relegated to Blue is a scary thought indeed. James On Wed, 2003-01-15 at 12:17, Jason Greenwood wrote: Todd Rocks, nuff said.
