Before I leave...
Here are the last messages from my pm box about the project. You may as well resurrect the public bashings towards the original coordinator and the recent one towards me. I could not follow the assembler after knowing the mistreatment. And he proved again that I made the right decision when he bashed me. HOS is not EEWRS, the team tried their best given the circumstances. As I mentioned, I have made great friends through the forum. Regards 6th November 2005, 08:14 PM I'm thinking that I could contribute a few pieces, and perhaps Rick is thinking of doing the same. The issue is really who will pull it together. I believe this needs to be done through a Filipino coordinator. Any suggestions? Ian.

Antonio has asked several of us to help him out. Not sure what to do. Ian. 8th November 2005, 07:29 PM Rick Crazy turn of events... There is a yahoo group that was set up that holds messages and images of what everyone was going to send. I let Antonio know that I was cutting back or pulling out after finding out the exhibit was posponed again. I have a few local projects I have more control of and I can't commit too much time because I have a baby to watch over. I don't feel comfortable about sending anything of personal value after the whole unprofessional episode that transpired between Ruel and Antonio. I caught Antonio's eewrs post before it was removed. Anyways, the project is mid next year, keep me posted.

I hope we can count on you for some participation . It's a shame that the project blew up but that is in the past and now it's time to try to get to the finish line . Jose , Federico , Vandoo , myself and a growing list of the member collectors of these weapons are showing interest in contributing . Antonio has asked me to contact you about details . Can you spare the armor for the exhibit ? I'm sending at least 1 Moro spear and whatever else is asked of me . Maybe we can dig up a helmet somewhere too . Feel free to contact myself or Mark with any questions you may have . Thanks very much . Rick |

The version of the process presented is different from my actual experience.
The Asian game schedule came and went with no communications from the museum to me about what was going on. I was out of the picture in Nov 2005. At what point did the museum decide to change the exhibit from a world exhibit to an exhibit about Eastern Asia and remove other sections? Who made the final decision to leave the Philippines section in, knowing the team had a couple of months to deadlines and was starting from scratch? It was unreasonable to expect one person or even the whole team to do a decent article in a month and half following the final selection. It was not worth the risk of the teams reputation and personal belongings of the contributors in the rush to completion. Damage was done and who should be held accountable? Who was responsible for putting the Philippines section in the precarious situation? |
