You didn't answer my question. You're not
seriously suggesting that
Gerard did not know about it are you?
No, nor did I at any time suggest it. If you can point at the message in
which I did so, I would welcome this so as to improve the clarity of my
communicaiton.
The rest of your email didn't make sense to me.
Even the bits about how continuing technical discussion of implementing a
feature when the very need for it is highly contentious can be considered
artificial and disingenuous, and come across as an intention to implement
the debatable policy as a fait accompli?
(Note that this concerns appearances, not necessarily what you were thinking
at the time.)
How does one purge
debate while at the same announcing where it is in the opening
paragraph?
Evidently he feels it is profoundly lacking in prominence.
Purge, in case you were unaware, means to remove. The
only thing that
has happened, on the advice of, Rowan Collins, is that it has been
_moved_ so as discussion about technical implications is not drowned by
Gerard's shrill.
Are you assuming bad faith on Gerard's part?
