> Hi Guys,
> 
> Over the past few days it has become clear that there are some issues
> that people need to discuss. Email is an excellent medium, particularly
> when emotions are low. However in the last few days, emotions have been

> respects due the characteristic failings in email to convery subtleties
> in conversation.

> I would like to propose that we add an item to the agenda of the

> the LUG handle OSS support, various political positions etc.

> There is misunderstanding happening. I feel that people being able to

> I also think that some people should learn to accept other points of
> view and stop continually threatening to throw their toys out of the
> cot. FFS, sort it out. Learn to live with other points of view.
> Otherwise your world will become small, and a population of one.

> Can people let the list know if a discussion focussed on trying to

> the majority feel that way, I'll load something into the website (That
> Jethro has done an excellent job on), and we can try and settle this.

> Simply send mail to the list with a subject of "LUG issues discussion:
> yes" or "LUG issues discussion:no" to place a vote.
