Yes, I thought Fred's comments were OK.
The questions, and subsequent rebuttals from Tomasz, were actually 
helpful to me, especially as they were tech orientated.

As long as it doesn't become personal either way.

People make their own judgements on the points - in this case Tomasz 
won 4-0 but I was still looking a specific example, from Fred, 
of 'what the implications of this implementation' might be, or a 
retraction from Fred (now that the discussion has been slammed we 
will never know if there was anything in his comments or not).

An objective critique can be answered and then we all learn something 
useful - I don't learn anything from name calling etc.
