I also received that one and my response was similar. I presume that was why I have not received the director's retraction of his accusations?
It highlights one of the problems any organization has of being over dependent on a small number of volunteers. Volunteers tend to bring with them a lot of enthusiasm and energy but sometimes a tendency to throw their toys out of the pram when they do not get their own way.
The problem is not that people disagree but the inability to handle such disagreements in a professional manner. The perception of the outside world is important - especially if that involves MSPs who may influence funding decisions - but it must be a major problem if the CS directors are unable to work together towards a common goal.
