Well, not exactly...your point that he made POV-Ray available before proper release
date is simply wrong (it *was* released!!!), and your other statement is something I
do not know for sure!

I said I don't *know* that he is a team member, he is not listed anywhere in the
program docs and I never met him in the (private area of the) POVRAY forum.
I don't now if he is "assistant webmaster", as I could read out of the IRC he only
said he was offered it, but I may be wrong.  If you want to know it you have to ask
Chris Young if he is, he is the team leader and he can tell you definetly.

Well, you were not very kind in this either...but whatever problems there are between
you and Twyst, I don't think you should discuss them this way because attacks on your
ot Twysts computers will be nearly impossible to prove - everybody can edit a text
file or a log or whatever, I think.

I would simply forget this and not go there again...avoiding trouble is better then
running against it. Your current way is the one of a child coming to his parents (this
is a metaphor!!!) and telling them another child hit it. What will the parents do? The
only think they can do is tell the other childs parents, not more. And all this
newsgroup can do, is to say that attacking the computer someone else is not "nice",
thats all - the rest has to be settled between you and Twyst (if you both want this)
and does not belong into a newsgroup.
