i could indeed spend that time, in addition to the critical tasks that i am
currently doing of keeping both Jean-Paul and Staf occupied.

if i took away the responsibility for the task, how would that make you feel?

i am already doing massive amounts here.  do you wish to add to that list?

why did you change them?

why did you not indicate an intent to change them?

because you did not inform me of an intent to change the colours, you
are directly responsible for increasing the amount of work needed.

please put them back to how they were.

please restore the VERSA_ECP5 images on the page.


changing the colours massively increases the tasks that have to be done.

then that is your responsibility to correct it.

i simply do not have the time.  i am ensuring that both Jean-Paul and Staf are
supported and are never delayed by being without critical information.

please stop fighting and dodging responsibility for the task: dodging that
responsibility is what is taking up the time.
