Please go to 
http://lists.sharif.edu/pipermail/farsikde/2002-August/000412.html and 
see how hard I tried to be nice to everyone. How hard I tried to avoid 
being a prick, how I tried to praise everyone's work, and so on. 

Unfortunately it seems the september 2002 archive of our mailing lits is 
no loner available at Sharif Servers. Anyway....

There is really no benefit in bringing back thse old stories. I am happy 
that after that, we managed to establish LIGLUG, and managed to 
actually instead of fighting, do something usefull. We worked on KDE, 
and Behdad and Roozbeh also worked on other stuff that were interesting 
for them. 

Abbas, I generally agree with you about what you said about iranians. 
However, during these months, I think we have proved that we (as a 
team) can work with each other. And have done so wonderfully. We shall 
only focus on what lies ahead, and try to work with each other, just 
like we have done in the past couple of months. There is no need to 
refer to those old stories. There really is no benefit in doing so. 

So let us just forget what happened one year ago, between linuxiran.org! 
and the sharif university. We shall now focus on KOffice 1.3, which 
should be out in August, and then on KDE 3.2, which we have many plans 
for it.

Arash, I didn't use any bad word regarding any person but myself. I 
didn't offend a single individual, other than myself. What I said, was 
only repeating what someone once told me, in a public place (as you 
perfectly know). I didn't tell those words to him, or to anyone else. 
I didn't offend anyone. I didn't deserve your criticism.

Having said that, I agree that I should have been a little more carefull 
when wrting that email, and shouldn't have repeated what was once 
directed at me.  

I apologize for my use of words (even though they were not directed to 
anyone).

Cheers
