Just to add my $0.002 cents worth, it was Jon's attitude 
on the jserv list that got me engaged with Apache/Java stuff in the 
first place. (And I've now contributed a fair amount to Turbine as well 
as a little elsewhere).

The thing is that most people who do open source work do it for the 
fun/satisfaction of the thing, and engaging in debates with someone who 
truly speaks their mind and only compliments your work when its worth 
complimenting helps out with that fun/satisfaction thing.

If you want nice polite accommodating support go to someone that you 
_pay_ not to tell you you're being an idiot when you're being an idiot.

Yeah I don't mind looking over it when I get a chance... I'm quite good 
on reflection stuff...

+1 on pushing for that.

The problem, however, is with use of the Texen tool which is a part of 
Velocity, and the problem would occur with any use of that tool...

I'm not 100% sure of my status as a Turbine committer (i.e. do I count
as a jakarta committer yet? jakarta.apache.org/turbine redirects to
java.apache.org/turbine so that looks about 50/50 :-)

Anyway if I do, my votes are above (the 0s are people I don't have any
experience of).
