Speaking personally, I have a lot of respect for *your* work, but also his. I'd rather neither of you leave, but I also don't see one of the parties trying to get rid of the other. Having read, and re-read the previous email that you replied to, I thought it was very fair and reasonable, although some aspects of his replies were expected (eg: the header, and his reply to the use of the term "open source"). I'd personally recommend you avoid getting angry at your MUA, read this (rudely titled, but well written) article: https://weev.livejournal.com/409835.html?nojs=1 and get back to hacking :) Cheers, James > > Cheers _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
