I happen to be right on many points, it would be a
great loss for you and others not to use rpa just
because I recommended ideas on what past package
mangers failed in the past, how they could have been
better, and help him with improving existing user to
rpa experience.

I am aware of my socializing problem :/ I am not nice
to people over the net for some reason, however I am
nice in person. You are right I could be nicer in my
amils, I could say "horrible" in nicer words. I think
I answered that previous email without thinking how
awful  I was calling the raimo and raimbo code.

I wouldn't say ideas get soured. More like its more
difficult for people to believe me like in.. the boy
who cried wolf?

I know, I have had past problems with the way I talk
to people.

I really need to change the project name :) I have
been reading in to using a compiler. TenDRA has many
nice points. I am sure it could be less difficult to
straight compile code.
