On the Xolox issue, many GDF members became upset that Xolox was flooding the network with queries, taking up almost half of all query bandwidth by automating requeries at the expense of everyone else. They never participated in the GDF to defend themselves -- in fact, no one ever heard anything from them. We had to address the issue because it was crippling the network. It was not personal.
I wonder why nobody from the GDF tried to inform the Xolox developers about this? If this is/was such a big problem send them a mail and tell them what you have discovered! Now they can investigate it too, and change it if necessary!

Also funny is that the only source for this is Vinnie and we all know what he thinks about Xolox! Did you investigate it too? I wonder why no one of the other developers said something about this or did I miss something? In private the developers said its no problem! I am no coder I donīt know what to believe but I know if NOBODY besides Vinnie confirm this, I am not going to belive it!

About the protocol documnetation, I wonder when 5 or more FULL time coders have no time to do it who have it??? But you donīt need to do it alone, there are other solutions hire moderators, like you have done it already with Mike Green, who can do the documentation! If Mike cannot manage the work alone ask one or two more coders - the GDF is FULL of them!

Btw what do you think about a new protocol?
