Wow indeed. Although I tend to share a lot of his cynicism--I at least recognize that I'm ultra-cynical by nature. I don't think I'd jump ship, though, given all the positive reasons for sticking around. Not the least of which IS the community itself, despite frustrations caused by the closed-minded (closed-source) camps. :/ It's one thing to criticize, hopefully constructively, another to just giev up and leave. (Although I recognize that everyone has their boundaries.. so maybe this was just his.)

Sorry to see him disappear.. he was pretty good at stirring things up and I thought it was useful and good.
