Ray,

I just want to say that over the two years I have been subscribed to
this list, I have learnt a great deal from you, both about Linux, and
about integrity and attention to detail. Your contributions have always
been considered, thorough, to the point and helpful.

We have all, I think, learnt much about how to trouble-shoot our
problems, just from reading the way you go about it.

I personally feel that your response in this case is a model of respect
and openness, and thoroughly in keeping with what I think are the best
traditions of free and open-source software. 

Most of us, I hope, can see both sides of this issue.

Thank you for your continuing contribution to the list. I don't often
see acknowledgements of this kind on lists, but I think this one is
deserved.

Sincerely, 

Peter Garrett
