Dude, please.

I've known Thomas for many, many years, and have been as impressed with 
his growth as a developer as I have with his character as a man.

On most days, his contributions are only of the most positive sort, 
focusing on helping people find good solutions to the problems they 
face.  He also donates a lot of code and tools to the community, and for 
all that we really like him.

Sure, he's fed up with the off-topic stuff.  I think we all indulge a 
bit much, and if not Thomas than Heather would have come down as well.

And sure, we all have a dog in this race, so we're all likely to get a 
little excitable now and then in response to this unusual disruption 
from Apple and its implications for our work.

But I wouldn't call Thomas a hater, and I don't think this list is the 
best place for such character attacks.
