Re: Network Audit Module

 

I've already heard back from one of you that thinks I am naïve.  I don't
agree.

Are you a football fan?

Three referees were talking.  One had just finished calling his first
game, the next had been working for 20 years, the last was about to
retire.  The youngest and newest said he had learned he had to call the
penalties AS HE SAW THEM.  The second laughed and said he did that too
when he was first in the game, but now he called the penalties AS THEY
ARE.  While the younger ref thought this was interesting, the retiring ref
laughed at both of them and said he knew by now that THERE IS NO PENALTY
UNTIL I CALL IT A PENALTY.

My point?

I understand - I do.  I've heard a lot of the dirty laundry from others.
I know there are a lot of upset people in the community.  I know we are
the 'new kids' on the block.

I stand by what I wrote - even though there has been wasted energy in the
past, it is YOUR choice to be frustrated with OpenERP and keep that from
making you even more successful than you are.

They are doing the best with what they have - they aren't perfect and they
are not scheming to make you waste time on purpose.  They are just doing
'things' and you are making these things into frustrations and wasted
energy.

Hey - I hated my parents for 40 years before I realized they just did what
they did, they didn't mean to upset me, frustrate me or make me feel bad -
they just made choices.  'I' was the one who gave those choices meanings.

You have the choice - you can choose to continue to feel like they are the
'bad' guys or you can spend your energy making things better.   It is only
a penalty if you call it a penalty.

I wish everyone the very best with OpenERP and everything else you all do.

I will still think this way in 15 years, no matter what OpenERP does.

Ray.

I'd like to welcome everyone who feels slighted by OpenERP S.A back to the
ONE SINGLE PRODUUCTIVE AND COOPERATIVE OpenERP Community.

I see a lot of frustrated comments and I presume there is a lot of energy
spent in ways that could be re-directed for the benefit of all of us.

We can't change the world without EVERYONE's help folks!  Together we can
make OpenERP the best ERP in the world.  As individuals, factions and
infighters we can't.

Our customers (and potential customers) notice this and so do our
competitors.

'banned' and 'resistance' - has that approach really been working that
well for you?  It is getting you what you want?

'teamwork' and 'understanding' - these approaches have been working REALLY
well for me and the company I work for.   OpenERP has provided a platform
that has helped us TRIPLE the size of our company in 12 months.

I encourage you to 'come back'...

Things just happen, they aren't meant as attacks on what you believe in...


Don't take it personally, don't take your toys and go home sad and mad -
be part of the solution that benefits everyone. (please!)

Ursa Information Systems
OpenERP Gold Partner
