Jimbo, look, nobody here are in doubt about the honesty of this or those
person.
The discussion here is not about the people, is about the positions. Is
about the actions.
Sorry, Jimbo, but I believe, nobody here really can believe in a maniqueist
discussion like that.
I don't care if Thomas is a beatifull guy, if he can cook very well or if he
smells good. This is not the point.
The point here is: Thomas is one of the people who deny the debate. This is
the fact.
Of course I want Thomas close to us, fighting with us, but I cant't believe
in dictatorship.
If you really want to help us, you can speak with your friend Thomas about
those problemas. What do you think?
Saludos.

what can be done? The answer may be nothing at all, and its possible (in
light if Jimmy's email) that there is a misunderstanding at the source of
this problem.
Having spent 3 days there working with Thomas morning to night, I think
it is almost certainly some kind of misunderstanding. Editors are very
welcome, there is no hostility to editors, and there is no
authoritarianism at all. It is actually quite funny and ironic that
this charge is being put forward, because Thomas very much takes the
opposite approach from authoritarianism.
