I think you are mistaking me for someone with the power of a Stalin. This
is a community movement with staff , trustees and volunteers all of which
have played roles in this and it is only the staff over whom I have
authority.
I also think your email style is horrible and to quote yourself 'totally
unacceptable'. My mum would have given me a good telling off for such
rudeness.
Can't you find ways to express yourself that make you r point without
seeming angry and arrogant?

It is so easy to think this was simple and why did it take so long. It
just did.
From October 1st 2011, through two legal drafts, the involvement
of staff and trustees over two continents, countless meetings, phone calls
and emails, it all took time.
Let's be happy we got there and toast the success. But please let's move
on and make QRpedia work.
You're the chief executive, it's your job to review what has happened,
work out why it went wrong and work out how to do things better in future.
"It just did" is totally unacceptable.
