in thread Amazon web services - talk amongst yourselves

Thank you for your explanation as to why you thought I was negative towards Amazon.

My actual request was to explain why you claim I have attempted to imply anything other than what I clearly stated. Your words were "Implying that that opinion is that of the Perl community as a whole, which I think is the attempt here". I simply want to know why you said that because it certainly wasn't in my statement and I totally disassociate myself from that sentiment although having created the myth, you seem intent on perpetuating that idea.

    As I said above (although not very clearly), two phrases (in the context they were in) really led me to that conclusion: "Before you go any further", and "not universally adopted". I thought that both of those detracted from the balance of the post, putting the argument against in a much better light than the argument for.

    Maybe it was more of a bad choice of words on your part than an actual attempt to imply what I thought you did?
