dear Smalltalk promoters, I have too many friends that are in a divorce with kids in the picture.
I have an understanding with them: they can talk (rant) to me about anything regarding their divorce, but not in public and not at parties.
So this stuff:
Now, I want to have details about your message. What do you mean by "blatantly unethical behavior"? At which point have we been unethical?
I do agree, that using phrasing "lost money" was inappropriate. ESUG is a non-profit organization and such phrasing simply cannot be applied to indicate that it was spent more money than it received. If it would be a commercial organization, such phrasing would be totally adequate. That is my only issue concerning current flame-out. I want to ask ESUG board members to not use such phrasing anymore, because they are inadequate. But i am far from calling that "blatantly unethical behavior". After all, ESUG mission is about 'losing' all the money they can get from sponsors to help promoting smalltalk. -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko.
