that's not fair... i can see you want to have projects on your platform but its
not right that we have to justify in that way that we want to have our projects
on our new platform. You maybe should look and listen what Nils and i did in the
last few years... not speaking about all the other contributors.

So what are your claims on the GPE project? I thought the times of hostile
behavior were over but obviously this is not true. :-( I really had the hope
that LTG and hh.org can work together. Maybe i'm not able to think in a that
political way. What i can do is to tell my personal opinions:
- I work for both GPE and LinuxToGo because i really like these projects and i
currently don't see any obvious reason not to make one of them work for the other.
- After this discussion i really wonder how to go on, i just want to make things
work and better than they are. That seems to be wrong... and thinking about the
past - how am i supposed to say "thank you"?

Greetings

Florian
