Mark Pilgrim, on the atom-syntax list: We can't use RSD

If there was ever a person who didn't deserve to be flamed like that it was Daniel Berlinger. What a joke. Not only are all of Mark's allegations totally made up, but RSD was designed as publicly as you could ask a format to be. I don't believe for a nanosecond that Atom is being developed even 1/50th as openly or honorably as RSD was. If there was ever a conspiracy in this context, it seems to be Mark's desire to assassinate people's character, for whatever reason... which is totally ironic and pathetic at the same time.

It's garbage like that that makes me think, "same shit, different pile" about Atom and some of the people "behind" it. Get past all this power and control crap, and get it done. Damn.
