Re: [Envolution-devel] Envolution Official International Website Policy

[Eric B. <apa...@xe...>]

Hello,

I would just like to say that I respect your personal opinion and there will
be no attack made on you. I wish you much luck with your support site and
anything that I can do to help you out just ask and I would be glad to do
it.

There has been a lot of misunderstanding about what has taken place, and
also much anger on the development lists. I hope that over time these things
can be cleared up and that you will see that I am making an effort to help
everybody in all communities.

Keep up the good work with the Polish Support Site and again let me know if
there is ever anything I can do to help.

Thanks,
Eric Barr
Project Manager - Envolution
