Niall- some day we should have a beer together, or a Whiskey, or a glass of milk. To get past this. On 16:53 Wed 02 Mar , Niall Douglas wrote:

Niall, I assure you I'm certainly not trolling nor trying to aggravate anyone. I'm merely trying to offer an explanation for why it might be sensible to spread the funds, based on my own experience with GSoC.
Thanks for the clarification, and had you explained yourself more clearly the first time you would not have been told to shove off. The way I read it was as if you arrived at a funeral and declared to everybody present "it's good this person died, it makes space for new people to replace them". That wouldn't be on at a funeral, and it wouldn't be on in a reply on this thread, even in the objective widest sense it is true and would otherwise find general agreement in sentiment.
Funeral? Hey, let's not resurrect the infamous "Is Boost dead?" thread, ok? ;-) Yes, this is me kidding, trying to lighten the mood.
I bit harder than usual mainly because of our past interactions where you have repeatedly voiced unhelpful, damaging and inappropriate observations, none of which resulted in positive outcomes between us, and anything you or your cadres write I expect by default now to have the worst possible meaning because well, that's where our past interactions have rationally brought us to. I actively avoid any interaction with any of the Hartmut posse wherever possible, there is little more I can actively do on that so long you as a group continue to behave the way you do as a group which I find as appalling as I'm sure my behaviour is to you.
Appaling? No, that's certainly not what I feel. It's rather compassion, actually. I realize now that you still believe there was a "vendetta" being led against you and that there was even a "cadre" cooperating on this. None of this is true. I and others said this repeatedly before, so I have little hope you'll believe me this time, but consider this: cui bono? I, for one, do not enjoy such situations.
