I will step in as a character witness for Thomas, the programmer of
Quark. I'm sure that whatever happened it was not his intent to cause
you any suffering (to put it in the buddhist way). He's a very nice

As far as ethics regarding draws on ICC are concerned there are plenty
of them, maybe his differ from yours.
