I think it's uncool to be sending emails to d-d-a with "position statement" in the subject that aren't indicative of a position statement of the project. We've had not one, but two GRs recently, which came out supporting what aj's doing. If anything, one could draw from these results that the "position statement" of the project is exact opposite to what you've put forward on d-d-a. Way to send conflicting messages to the public. In fact, your email was less of a position statement and more of a set of requests from my reading. For the record, the constant bitching and moaning is demotivating me more than anything else. If you don't like what's going on, remember it's only an experiment, and after the experiment is done, raise whatever GRs are necessary to make sure it can never happen again. regards Andrew
