I am claiming to be captian of the team.  I am happy to be on the team.
 I was getting us a GNU server up as soon as possible.

Really?  Don't kid yourself.  I remember some long phone calls and IRC
chats with you before the leadership "discussion".  We both know you
want a leadership position, that is fine, but don't claim you don't, or
play little power games.

Yes, I understand this, and I value all contributions to the project.

I think your timing was very dodgy.  We both know that more has been
going on in private chat and off list emails - don't kid yourself Ralf.
 You want a piece of the infrastructure pie, as you think it would give
you some power or something.  At every opportunity you want to use "the
Toshiba box" for the website.  You have even suggested that moving to a
GNU box is just an interim solution.

Ralf be up front with the users.  Don't make it seem like you are trying
to be good guy in all of this - you have other agendas.

For those of you who think my responses in the last 12hours have been a
little out of character, you are entitled to your opinions.  There is
always a reason for my "out of character" responses.  On this one it is
pure frustation.  I am meant to be on holidays on the other side of the
world - but the main phpGW issue people in Germany have discussed with
me is the lack of a website.  I try to implement an angreement that was
made months ago - and what is the response?  Accusations of not
supporting democracy, a "who is the worlds greatest cvs commiter"
ranking chart.

It is seeming like I am stuck in an episode of "Itchy & Scratchy" from
the Simpsons - any simpsons fan should understand what I mean.

Anyway, I am off to enjoy the sights of Hamburg.  I will be working on
the server later today.

I am sick of talking about bs.  Lets move forward.  We always get stuck
talking crap.
