>Please don't use terms like this, it's very negatively biased. Remember that using words like 'enemy' is what causes wars whether they be written ones or real one. These people are developers, they just use a different tool. They think theirs is the best tool to use just as much as you think yours is. There's nothing wrong with that and certainly nothing to make them your enemy even if you used the word lightly or in jest.

All this will do is to create schisms and tensions that are not good for the development community as a whole.



Well, at least when me and other developers are making a proposal to the same customer, the other developers aren't my best friends. But maybe I should have choose a better word to describe the situation. Let's replace the word " enemy " by " competitor ". Is that better for you?
