As an unbiased observer, I fully support Jon's behavior here and appreciate his direct style in this discussion as well as past discussions on this list. His direct style allows the discussion to remain focused on technical issues and opinions. I've had the same sort of communication conflicts with other developers who might not agree with my views or attempt to use political levarage and dishonesty to distort the discussion and manipulate less technical observers who don't fully understand the technical issues involved. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
