Re: problem with recent drafts on tools.ietf.org? {35440727}

Hi Fred,

Someone alerted me to this.  I don't read any IETF lists any more, so
needed the nudge:

There has been no conflict between me and AMS/Glen, none at all.  There
has been a great deal of conflict with the way the LLC Board and Jay
has been running things and what they have put me through, and I'm deeply
unhappy with them, but not at all with AMS or Glen.

The latest incident was with Jay at the beginning of February, after
the end of my contract but at a time when I was still committed to
maintaining tools.ietf.org as I have been doing it.  That February
encounter did however completely zap my motivation for keeping
tools.ietf.org up, and I now just want to be able to get completely
away from it.

It used to give me great pleasure, thanks to the appreciation of all
the good people in the IETF community, but now after the latest Jay
incident it only reminds me of the pain of last year.


Best regards,

	Henrik
