It's a niggling thing and nothing major as such. But ideas flow from |
9 |
concepts. And the idea that developers are in herds is not a solid |
10 |
concept from which to begin. |

While the Ciaran episode has come to an end, the circumstances that led |
13 |
to that episode have not changed: mutual respect for fellow developers. |
14 |
That is the idea. The concept should lay that down: a developer is not |
15 |
a mindless follower, but a human being and a talented developer worthy |
16 |
of respect. |

This is a very small issue in the scheme of things, and a small hole to |
19 |
fill. I'd rather fill it in now :) |
