Super, Thank you for all you have done and devolped. I am sure I can speak for the rest of the community - we would hate to see you go, it just wouldn'd be the same without you. I agree, Netgear needs to change the way things aer going and let it be open and free. They will loose all of the developers and customer at the rate they are going.

+1.

Netgear need to take a step back and have a serious re-think. Their actions over the past few years have not served to increase the customer base, brand loyalty or profits. All they've succeeded to do is bite the hand that feeds them, and alienate the very communities that have gotten them where they are to begin with. The situation that exists in the ReadyNAS division is mirrored right across the business. It's a corrosive attitude that will ultimately lead to them losing market share to their competitors who DO reach out and embrace the community that is their target market. They'll be lucky to to continue to be a major player if it continues.

My 2p.
