Unwanted rude behaviour (was Re: Workspace API)

Provoost, P (Paul)
Keith,

I think that you should not raise your voice the way you do in this mailing list.
Please don't be rude in this list, it spoils the positive and friendly atmosphere of it.
If you want to quarrel with Stef, then please do it in private mails.

Thanks,

Paul
