Agreed 100%. If I've done something that others consider to be
unacceptable for example, I want to know about it, and I'd like people
to know I know about it. I will then do what I can to put it right.

I think the difficulty perhaps comes when disagreements become more
intense - JD and I for example often clash antlers, but certainly from
my side there is no ill-will intended (in fact I'm looking forward to
the day we finally meet and I can buy him a beer), just the desire to
better what we're collectively doing.

Anyhoo, this is getting off-topic...
