For the record, what you said was in this posting:

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/archives/digitalmars/D/Re_D_Conference_Tango_Phobos_58225.html#N58577

"Module names in mixed case!? Did the Tango folk not read the D style
guide where it says "Module and package names are all lower case, and
only contain the characters [a..z][0..9][_]", or did they just
purposefully decide to avoid it? If the former, that was amateurish;
if the latter, it was petty."

[...]

"My apologies if I come across as contentious. I realise I'm a newbie
in this group. But that is the first impression I get from looking at
the Tango docs. I just ask myself over and over again, "Why did they
do that?" (...which should be regarded as a rhetorical question which
really means "I wish they hadn't done that")."

But you guys already had this discussion in September.  Can you stop 
trading barbs and agree that you both got overly personal?
