this thread was always going to happen....you said
yourself on IRC
Chris Cherrit that you're a difficult guy to get along with; and seems
you were right.
I don't give a fuck how good you think you are or your team is or your
"professional team" is, or how tired you all are, or how many "nice
days" there are in the world... etc etc etc -
Davis,Cannam,Schweer,Hohn - these are mighty names who between them
have build what is clearly the best audio platform on earth. And
they're fine examples of the human race to boot. Generous,creative
visionaries who have seen the potential and have given it life. What
have you contributed? You've taken their work and made some slight
changes. To take something from concept to reality from scratch, which
is what these men have done, that's laudable - and it furthers the
greater good.
Your OOM wouldn't exist PERIOD if it weren't for these guys. You have
had issues and acrimonious arguments with virtually all of them You
derisively attack all who "actively work against" your brilliant
plans/ideas/visions... I saw how you attacked Tim and Robert and Orcan
directly ( always telling them to "cool down" and have a NICE DAY!)
even when they always respectfully communicated to you in the best
traditions of FOSS.
I for one can certainly live without your project. And I will defend
these great names when ever they are challenged - by you or anyone else.

Pucker up?
