I'm sorry (actually I'm not sorry). Hmm, let's see. If I had it to do over, I would've handled my concerns about the CPAN module that I find most useful and practical for database processing in a more cavalier relaxed fashion than I did. I dont understand why people were up in arms about the age of the thread. The topic of the thread was relevant. I simply continued the thread. Making a new thread seems pointless to me.

Even though my tone and attitude were overbearing, bitchy and potentially offensive to Juerd, I hope $reader understands that everything I did was done out of FEAR and CONCERN for something I value highly - DBIx::Simple. I only wanted to make it better. But sometimes being over-eager can lead to inappropriate actions and I was overly impatient and demanding.

There was a positive outcome to this. Since I spent so much time whining about delinquency in this RT bug queue, I addressed many things that I had laying around in mine and am glad I did so. Somehow my email address for RT was going to the wrong place and I wasnt getting any bug reports.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to improving DBIx::Simple in the near and far future. SQL::Abstract::More might be a promising replacement for the current delegation to SQL::Abstract. Again, I hope Juerd is not permanently upset at me and I hope there are no permanent condemnations of me.

If there are, then dont forget Juerd did the same thing to Tommy, and on Christmas Day at that!
