Yeah, right, you do that a lot, going in the offensive, and trying to assign
blame. I wonder how you can work with folk in that way.

Don't you think taking the advice in the constructive way it was given, and
replying in a constructive way instead of assigning blame and going into
ad-hominem attacks will be more forward-looking ? 

I know i used to do the same, and i know that you willingly provoked me into
that also, but it has been months since i last did so, and a few events have
made me reflect on this, but apparently you are still in the old scheme of
things.

Totally unrelated. I have looked into the bug, i accept the fact that it may
be broken (altough 'completely' broken is not warranted here), but we are
discussing something else here, and you are still in your old conflictive
behaviour, and think yourself better than me in some way.

Please stop this now, i have reflected upon my errors, and what happened with
dato made think also, since i believe the various flamewars we had almost all
this year (well, not only you and me, but in general), may have affected him
some.

So, it is past time you put aside your childish pride, stop this continuous
bashing, and at least make some effort for us to work together again in a sane
and constructive way. The ball is in your camp.
