10 No, this isn't really constructive. As I wrote, try to drive the
11 discussion by adding substance to it, rather than fueling flames
12 by requesting others to refine.

14 Since it is an area where you may be able to contribute, I think

21 I think you're right that complaints are about your response, but I
22 absolutely do not interpret the complaints to be that you personally
23 or the PMS team did not implement the requested feature. I think
24 that's a misunderstanding of yours.

26 If you don't understand something of what thus far has been written,
27 then why not ask specific questions to fill those gaps, and move on?
