Scott, if you can't see that, then there's not much hope for you. The guy has invested a tremendous amount of time and effort in delivering a product that a lot of us never expected to see on a BSD, and feels he's had all that work thrown back in his face. He hasn't done himself many favours perhaps, but you're happy enough to 'use whatever Java package works', so the least you could do is give some credit to peoples efforts. Using the 'f' word doesn't automatically make your arguments invalid. -- One cannot make an omelette without breaking eggs -- but it is amazing how many eggs one can break without making a decent omelette. -- Professor Charles P.
