What he said Aaron's replies (and the lack of other people replying) was largely due to = the=20 fact that most of us at aKademy felt he was dealing with it fine, and he wa= s=20 replying with at least the implicit (at least) approval of most of the peop= le=20 there. He certainly had mine. The thing is, in case this isn't clear, we'd like you to be on the team. Y= ou=20 have energy, and enthusiasm, and nobody has a problem with that. You just= =20 have to learn how to *be on the team*, and as far as most of us are=20 concerned, when it's the usability team, Aaron is the captain. So far=20 it's more like we're entered in a 4x100m relay, and you're doing the=20 backstroke. That's not working.
