YOUR INPUT ON THE CALVERT SITE!

[VideoFest Berlin]

Since you've posted this to BOC-L, I think it's relevant to say that
the comment about "the trainspotters on the BOC-L list" (or words to
that effect) is uncalled for.


oh well....sorry, but where's your humour??? - but ok, here are some 'answers':
a/ did I wrote anything about "mad / silly / idiotic trainspotters"? No.
b/ did I say that there is something fundamentally wrong with trainspotting? No.
c/ if you've ever taken a good look at the major parts of the Calvert site,
you should notice that one can't deny a certain obsessive attitude about it
- you might call it a train-spotterish attitude as well - I wouldn't care,
to be honest. It comes with the 'business' of setting up such a project.

so, if anyone feels abused by this term, I am afraid you got it all wrong -
sorry 'bout that - but you might take as well a look at the THANKS page
annexed to the Calvert site - and find you name on it, in case you ever
contributed to this site.
so, it wasn't meant to be offensive... - t-spotterish greetings for now,
k.g.
