For the record, I am the real "Harry the ASIC Guy" whose blog post was
"modified" by the originator of this thread, cowardly posting behind
the email ****eld of "hairytheasicguy@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
". You can find my
legitimate blog at the following URL ... http://theASICguy.com.
You
can also find my original post on this topic at
http://theasicguy.com/2008/04/24/breaking-news-accellera-verification-workin=
g-group-forming/.
I do not know why "hairy" decided to take my original post, modify and
add to it, and then publish under this obviously contrived email
address. Is this a childish prank? Hairy, if you have something to
say, please have the courage to do so using your real identity.
I've tried to contact "hairy" by email twice about this but gotten no
response. What really bothers me is that he is using an email address
that is confusing my readers. If anyone can help me figure out who
this person is or how to really get in touch with him at his "regular"
email, then perhaps that would help. You can post to this newsgroup or
contact me thru email: harry at theASICguy.com
