I am happy to see your apology. Please keep in mind this is a friendly group, and I have not seen anyone here with ill intentions. I want to say that I am quite appreciative of everything the XMLVM group has provided, and the support & encouragement they exhibit. They have also been very open in listening to the community & discussing major changes, even though they should have the authority to make a change or not without discussion so since it is their creation. As a third party, it seems more appropriate that I am the one to say your attack was unprovoked, and I hope we can act courteous amongst each other. But again, I am happy to see you have already recognized that.
