Let's avoid calling what other people in the project say "nonsense" or "spew". I mean in general, but also in this particular case I think that's a reasonable view if you think of Flock as "better FUDCon" rather than a whole different thing. I'm a strong advocate of it being a different thing, but let's be respectful of those with a different view (even — or especially — if we want to convince them otherwise).
Flock is not just a better FUDCon. It has a budget that is about 3-4 times that of a FUDCon and touts itself as the premier contributor event. I am usually not this animated in my emails but I could not help it in this case because I find it hard to respect an opinion that is obviously exclusionary.
