I hate the word "rockstar" used to describe developers. Makes it sound like ego and heroic solo performances matter, and that humility and teamwork don't. But it came from the states, so maybe that's what's valued there. I do say "awesome" though. I'm guilty of that one :) Ashley -- http://www.patchspace.co.uk/ http://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleymoran -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "NWRUG" group.
