More on Echo

Ok, I really didn't think I'd post more on the Echo project but one post today just shouts for a response.

This is some blatant FUD put out by John Robb, President of UserLand. In his post, he claims that IBM is behind all of this and is making Sam do all this work. This is really an uncalled for attack on the honesty of Sam. In all my dealings with Sam, I have never seen a secret agenda being involved. John's post is only going to make the schism between Echo and UserLand/Dave Winer that much larger.

Beyond that, I don't really have an opinion. Parts of the Echo project seem like sour grapes to get rid of Dave's influence on various blogging stuff. I guess I just don't really see the need for the project yet.

Ok, enough of that, back to hacking in TrackBack support into Jericho...
