No, not right. Absolutely nothing can come of a petition, so crafting one would do nothing but pit us against Mandrakesoft for absolutely no reason. Why do that? Mandrakesoft is on our side. If you want to help Civileme, do something that will help him in whatever he does next, like offering to write a letter of reference or something. (?) Miark Hello, Looks like time for me to eat humble pie. Maybe a petition is not the _best_ idea but I hope you all understand I wrote with good intentions. Unfortunately I don't think my references will carry much weight. (but always happy to try!) Regards, _nasturtium Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I have only caught some of this thread, and it disturbs me deeply. Did I miss it or has no-one thought to as civilme what _he_ would like us to do ?. Possibly that would be a good starting point ..

Miark So that is what we should do, nothing. Civileme is in the position to know what is best for him. He has all the details and the whycomes, so if he wishes us to do nothing we should honor him and his request.
