Gordon, you write
<<I look at your blog everyday and i believe that it was not announced there. I did see it in a private note that you sent which which i thought also said it was cancelled due to the decision of the core group. I also recall that i have not seen any p2p blog posts in about 10 days.>>
it was not announced on the blog, as that would defeat the purpose of not broadcasting but I did send you the same note privately, it appeared more discreetly on the wiki without any effort at spreading, just 'for the record' for those who want to know; we are still publishing 3 items per day on the blog, 7 days a week, 365 days a year <g> ; something might be wrong with your feed ? Kevin is in cc , and he may need technical details from you to check it
<<but something that is not clear are you referring to the ecuadoran p2p team? or to key p2p people in europe? Or both?>>
to the intl team of contributors to the p2p-f work, not to the ecuadorian researchers who are only more loosely associated with our network
<<they don't seem to need to be fed>>
apart from BG, who seems a loose cannon for them as well, they have made a conscious effort not to feed the controversy (though I do get pressuring private emails)
Gordon, I am now also no longer responding to this controversy and the prods coming from you here, I think you know all you need to know; as I said, I regret to be the focus of your open letter, as the only person who actually challenged their practices publicly, rather than the focus on the do-ers of the deeds.
