How about we keep this from being personal? Let's keep your enthusiasm
for judgements of my character off the list. Thanks a lot.

I suppose the solution to that would be to organise what should be
talked about? I'm sure we'd all be happy to put the most important
items first so people who are short on time can simply drop in to
express their view before the other less important items are discussed.

I'm sure it would be rather representative of the community who are
able to put time into DFEY. Obviously we aren't discussing those who
"have too much time on their hands and sit in the IRC channel all day",
but rather those who have enough time to sit in an IRC channel for a
couple of hours a couple of times a month. I'm not entirely sure if
those who only able to interact by debating on the mailing list are
really "the community" at all...
As it happens, I don't care too much either way, really. Your first
email simply seemed overwhelmingly bull. As it happens, I have to agree
with Richard's suggestion, if for no other reason than entropy.
Thanks,
