I think that would be a great idea. And I should know because I am completely
neutral in this issue.

Arafat is not subscribed to the developer list, AFAIK. The only possible way
you might get him to change his attitude is if you ask him openly. Also, the
quote you put here is a little out of context, but since you included the link
I won't call you on that one :). Anyway, I think any further discussion of
_this_ topic belongs on the doc list. In Arafat's defense though, I haven't
known him long but I've seen his aggressiveness bring in good results. Believe
me any team in the world would be incomplete without one or two people like
that!

Abdulaziz,
