Instead of ironically disqualifying my statements and systematically
ignore certain parts of the e-mail, you could propose some other path.
Oh, and given your reply, it would have been more complete if put like
this: "You are now the pointy-haired project manager, congrats". You
also proved me right. I wasn't talking of anything that you won't find
on every successful Open Source project, even KDE has a board that
decides the direction of the project.

In my opinion, Alan, you just show what seems to be a misunderstood
"hacker attitude" of disrespect to anybody you do not consider an
equal. And that, more than a hacker attitude is a teenager "rebel
without a cause" attitude.

I will be working on the site, even though I don't know if anybody
really cares, but I feel less welcome here every day.

Regards,
Pointy-Haired Juan, KTechLab's new Project Manager
