I was reacting to the 'you lose' comment. I thought, "well I don't lose, maybe I need to try again, but I'd like some constructive feedback." >> > In practice this means that AndyDoan/Ricardo will have to do their work >> > again on top of this tree, and then I might merge it. >> >> I'd like to further suggest that in the interest of cooperation that >> we take a more constructive tone.

I'm sorry for jumping to conclusions and not asking you privately about it. _______________________________________________ linaro-dev mailing list linaro-dev@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-dev
