unsubscribing

[Tom Glod]

We could make a compelling case for airing business and licensing details
in public, or in private.
For Livecode, as a company that is already poor on the spectrum of
transparency and communication, and at times truth-telling.
(though improving)
I vote NO to taking the conversations private.

If you are wondering what I mean .....

No public roadmap on what is going to get done or not going to get done any
time soon.
Lack of candor is all statements made, such as not addressing the fact that
we have funded features you have not delivered (when telling us you spend
more on the platform than you make.)
The community as a whole has no clue if the script compiler will ever
happen.........
Those are 2 examples.

Sooooooo ... I say having to make public statements as part of the new
future of livecode might be a good thing.

Why is anyone trying to decide what gets talked about here and what
doesn't  to begin with?
Is it spam? no.  Is it livecode related, yes.
