1.- Only the Phpgroupware Coordination Team speaks for the project. I
have stated this many times to reiner and anyone who would listen. Um
this mail does not speak for the project, for example. 

2.- I used to think there might be a way to work closer together. For
example, i thoguht maybe a distro-base approach might have been a good
way to treat the ego fork for both projects. But this last problem
burned all bridges, and it burned them from your side.

The way the idots problem was given, it was designed to hit the DotGNU
release right on the day, on a public list, instead of in private,
without any exact clue as to where the problem was. 

That was designed as a direct  aggression to the FSF, the GNU project,
the dotGNU distribution, the phpgroupware project and Free Software as
in GPL as a whole. 

And we all know how egroupware HATES the people of GNU and the FSF ( I
do have stuff to backup all of this ), how they have disregarded
licensing issues, in particular violating the LGPL and the GPL, how they
got so angry when we addressed this kind of problem quickly. No, noone
is fooled, everyone knows this is why you left.

So, in vengeance, you pull this one off. It is a cool one, ellaborate,
ill give you that.


3.- Do not post logs where i called all of you ego crowd extremely bad
names with a rather foul language. This third point preempts any need to
do so, I did call egroupware developer names, very aggressive ones (it
begins with 'F' and ends with 'uckers'), publicly in the channel and
privatly with other phpgw members (dont get me started on what i whisper
about you guys at work). 

I even explained it to you guys why did i do so: i feel i need to defend
my project against people that have no respect for software licenses,
but take code that was speciffically lincensed to NOT coexist with
another and mix them anyway, before dealing with the licensing first, to
provide a feature, no matter how cool, if you mix beforehand, youve
broken the law.

Now gentelmen, you have tried your best to hurt  phpgw, now please leave
us alone unless you want to continue this discussion on your own lists.
I think weve clobbered this one enough.
