Since we all have just discovered that you are not planning to attend  
EclipseCon, I'm
sure you would be amenable to have an open conference call before end  
of week to
reinforce your points and refute these alleged 'spurious and  
defensive arguments' in
detail - when would be a good time for this? (early PST is best as  
people are distributed
from PST to CET) I will arrange a bridge and I am sure  that all  
parties would be
delighted to help address your outstanding issues.
