Speaking for myself,
I worked with the other cc members for years, And yes, there are moments 
that the way Oracle acted was 'sub-optimal' (or whatever people may 
experience and label that) but that never was a reason to fight or 
leave. (And also that only could be a derived, secondary or how do I say 
that, motive behind the foundation.)
Since I know that the other cc members (some, partly) are interested in 
finding ways to work together I just did not expect that they were not 
looking from another perspective at that moment, then to make me (and 
the others) leave immediately.
Looking back, I could have chosen different, obviously.

Regards,
Cor
