I received an email from someone who received an email from John. He flamed them for what they said in the UT public discussion. With you being as coy as you were about whether John wanted to return or not I was not sure whether he was following the discussion. Obviously he was. It's a moot point now but I'm sure you will understand that I have withdrawn my support for him receiving another chance.

Mike, I wasn't being coy at all. He said that he might return to some of the forums (like the .NET forum), but obvoiusly, no one can predict the future.

Who did he flame?

Given that John was at least mildly curious about the results of the vote, I rather doubt he's following a discussion. You realize that if I'm correct, you're making a false accusation in public.
