Subject: Re: about ignorance and defending oneself

Go up one level in this thread


I have just sent the following email to Chris Whittington.
The "last conversation" that I make reference to in the
first paragraph occurred several months ago after a similar
post (I think) by Fernando making reference to Oxford
Softworks (I think). Correct me if I am wrong on those
specifics.

The email:
Hi Chris,
Pursuant to our last conversations with respect to
your ability to respond when you are "talked about"
in CCC (Fernando post from CCC and my response copied
way below)_...

As I have told you, I agree that you should be able
to defend yourself/company somehow in CCC. Unfortunately
because ICD has no say or responsibility in what is
posted in CCC, I am helpless to prevent it, but I
will be happy to relay your thoughts (or you can
have Thorsten do it as before) to the message board.

For all I know (and I don't) you may totally agree with
Fernando and not wish to respond at all.

Your other options, of course, are to respond in rgcc,
Sean's site, or by private email to Fernando
(ferdinan@cmet.net). Obviously, you do not need any of
my help in those arenas.

Regards, Steve

One of several situations that were never covered when the CCC
was formed is exemplified above.

Chris resigned (according to the CCC Founders) or was removed
(according to Chris) from CCC. This, of course, does not give
him an opportunity to defend himself or his company here in
CCC on issues that may directly or indirectly affect him.

I am not exactly sure how we can resolve this issue, but
I certainly invite Thorsten to respond on behalf of Chris,
or I will also offer to do likewise.
