Sorry, dude. You're yelling at the wrong person. You can use whatever
four letter words you want, but I think you can't see the forest
through the trees.

I've got 27 years on the platform, and my desire is to retire, still
working on the platform at that time. But, I'm also a realist. I am
working with others that think through small steps, we can accomplish
the long term goal of some type of MPE beyond EOL. We have made
sincere and significant progress. There is a long way to go, but at
least there is an alternate and possible future that didn't exist a
few months back.

Can you and the others that are bellyaching about what is going on
say that you are actively working with the OpenMPE or Interex
communities to ensure that future? I don't think so.

So, either help us, or shut up. Complaining about the progress helps
no one.
