I've noticed you relentlessly and persistently post comments that are deeply critical of Groovy. To put it bluntly, I pretty much ignore everything you say on this topic because I have surmised that you have some deep issue or axe to grind that is beneath it all. I am curious however what that deeper issue is. Clearly from your depth of knowledge you had a heavy involvement at some point, but at some point something deeply alienated you. I am not casting a judgement here about whether you're justified in that, but I like to keep an open mind. If you are willing to tell me (privately if necessary) I am interested to know what your side of the story actually is.
