I saw that thread a while back and felt the energy there was all wrong: yet another flickr lynch mob out to get whoever the group decided was the bad guy of the moment. So, the "good riddance" sentiment in that thread would no doubt be even stronger now that 8020 is going under but those people miss the bigger point (at least to me) which is that their very energy and demeanor may have been what sunk JPG and might be in the process of sinking flickr. I don't know, but I'm interested. Cybergus: But, that thread hasn’t been updated in 17 months so it doesn’t acknowledge this new piece of news.
