I addressed Brad's questions and encouraged him to subscribe to the xerces-j-dev. I didn't know if he was a shy person or not. So if he wanted to ask quietly first, I was trying to oblige him -- but I always intended to send him to the public list. We need all the people we can get, including the shy ones. > IMHO, If you want xerces development to be more open, then the best way to > do that is to lead by example. You know that I am trying to do that. If you feel that I set a poor example, then I can accept that, and I'll try to do better in the future. > - Sam Ruby > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >
