Ken and Peter,
I have to be very brief right now but I want to point out that neither Fil nor I stated or even implied that NextD does not do valuable work. I find it bizarre that specific criticism of the content and nature of a post is answered by an inverted ad hominem: These guys are good guys so how dareanyone respond negatively to anything they do or say?
Really? You can do better than that. It seems to me that the people who claim to stand for logical inquiry shouldn't be so damned clubby. Just because you or your school has worked with someone, that doesn't mean that they can do or say no wrong. Ken, you've pulled this a couple of times with me in the last few weeks. I suggest that you think about that.
My students will be doing a project with NextD this coming week. I hardly rejected them entirely. I commented on a post (which, by the way, is part of an unfortunate pattern in GK's public communication on this list and at conference talks.) Much of my second post was not even directed at GK or his original post.
If this is uncharitable, so be it.
Gunnar
