We are having this discussion because my friends and I dragged all of those
folks to something new and revolutionary called Open Source. I did not
refrain from doing that in consideration of the limits of my power or, the

Simon Phipps was a witness and we can discuss that offline if you wish, and
I don't believe you further the discussion by so taking umbrage. While I am
confident in what Stef could do, independently of his OSI position, OSI's

their broader social milieu. It is no crime that OSI can not do everything.
