Understandably, Jeremy is real sensitive about commercial caches. But in
the past, he and the people who review caches prior to their release
would have just refused to approve it and then let the hider appeal to
them. I interpret the fact that they let it get listed as they're pretty
sure it's not inside. Based on the find log, it isn't, so in my opinion
there's no reason to archive it. I am surprised that Jeremy didn't email
you about it privately, though.

There's a lot of people playing in this sandbox; more every day, it
seems. With all those folks, sometimes some sand gets kicked into
someone else's face. Then we squabble awhile  about it, then the dust
settles, then everyone plays nicely again. I hope you'll give us a
little more time.
