Volgens The Man Himself liggen de zaken iets anders dan eerder door The Register geschetst (thanks chaos voor de tip):
Seems like the aforementioned Mike of the Register has posted a bit about yours truly being unemployed for the holidays. It wasn't all that bad, as a result I didn't have to work through New Year's Eve because of the Y2K bug, and in the interim I got a lot of work done and caught up on some gaming.Anyway I will have a full story, hopefully with official comments from the involved parties if they will touch this one with ten foot pole. Anyway, I sent a few clarifications to Mike about it as I did not read it until it was up. Anyway, if you are concerned about me, don't worry, I won't bow down to pressure from any entity. It's just not in my nature.
