RE: SUO: Ballot may be released Friday
Dear Matthew,
Thanks for your kindness and your efforts at rationalizing and being
pedagogical. So, according to you, although I'm apparently asked to vote on the
future activity of this group, I should not confuse this with an actual vote on
the future activity of this group, it truly is some kind of credit giving and
flower throwing to dearly regarded colleagues.
We should cut the spiel here and vote on the creation of a SUO badge, I'll
candidate for being the editor of the SUO badge list, I'm good at Paint and can
even design a logo.
Best
Pierre
