Whatever the issues are with Nuc, its unfair on anyone to bring up personal relationships/family issues. These are not relevant and don't serve the purposes of debate too well.
That said, the confrontational manner that Nuc adopts with his unhappy customers does himself no favours.
I've been watching this thread with interest, so far I have seen:
1. People who are unhappy with a product for whatever reason.
2. People who do not understand that a myriad of configuration issues and specific circumstances make "off the shelf" scripts unworkable in some applications.
3. People who have an axe to grind and jump on the bandwagon
4. A vendor who gets just a little bit too bullyish with his unhappy customers.
I guess that now that this issue is so public, it remains to be seen who will show themselves to be the better person by formulating a reasonable resolution which (1) is fair and reflects the effort put in by Perlcoders to deliver a product; and (2) allows the aggrieved parties (ex customers) to obtain some redress or resolution of their complaint.
This is probably a classic situation where everyone needs to give a little ground and reach compromise
