Why is Roy Schestowitz running in damage control on this story?
Ask him.

I have. Several times. No response has been forthcoming. Roy has
written that Lance "may be departing" the project; I'd guess nine
months of being incommunicado is a fair indication of that. He's
commented that he "likes to think" that Lance is just "being
possessive" ("like Terry Childs"), and I guess that's also true, with
regard to the centos.org domain and the funds people have contributed
to the project.

What he hasn't done is explain why it's getting the whitewash,
softsoap treatment...

Since I use CentOS and since I've directly communicated to CentOS developers since the open letter was published on the CentOS website -- I'm curious as to exactly *how* Roy is supposedly running "damage control." Where is your evidence for the "whitewash" or "softsoap" treatment? You mean Roy is quoting the blogs of the developers who will be the ones who actually continue *developing* CentOS?

Well, shoot him at sunrise.

This personal battle with Roy Schestowitz is causing you to lose touch with reality.

And here's the latest open letter from CentOS.

~~
The CentOS Development team had a routine meeting today with Lance Davis in attendance. During the meeting a majority of issues were resolved immediately and a working agreement was reached with deadlines for remaining unresolved issues. There should be no impact to any CentOS users going forward.

The CentOS project is now in control of the CentOS.org and CentOS.info domains and owns all trademarks, materials, and artwork in the CentOS distributions.

We look forward to working with Lance to quickly complete all the agreed upon issues.

More information will follow soon.

Well, darn, it looks like the WinTroll gloating was a little premature. And it looks like Roy's supposed "whitewash" turned out to be right on.
