How about if I did take part? How about if my (real) name appeared in the credits list? And all over the discussion forums? If, after taking a good deal of time trying to convey my concerns with the project, and supporting others when they expressed their concerns, it became obvious to all that those concerns were concidered unimportant or trivial or simply too far from where those with influence wanted to go, I backed away. And when those that did seems to share my concerns felt they had no other course but to walk away, I decided that it was a lost cause? What then? Is keeping my own council still "gutless"? Update: "I don't think the project will succeed but I'm not going to tell you why" Also, I never said that. Nearly a year ago I agreed with another monk that I didn't think Parrot would succeed. And a couple of hours ago I declined to enter into technical debate about a subject I am no longer up to date on with someone whom appears to delight in knocking Perl. Had anyone been interested back then, or if anyone was seriously interested in my opinion now--then a private msg asking for that opinion would be the right approach. Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
Lingua non convalesco, consenesco et abolesco. -- Rule 1 has a caveat! -- Who broke the cabal?
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
