Anyway, I contributed a lot to eCos in the past (agreed, certainly not as much as Grant) and did not feel offended in any way. OTOH, some of the reactions to some honest question were, IMHO, plain insulting without any a reason. If this is the way the eCos community welcomes newcomers nowadays, I don't think the community will grow much in the near future. There is always the option of just not reacting if you read something you don like (which is exactly what I am going to do from now on :-).
