an apology

Dear colleagues,

I hope this message finds you in good health. I want to address recent discussions about collaboration within our community. While our primary focus is technical, I have not honored the importance of personal dynamics.

I'd like to sincerely apologize for any impact my actions may have had on some of you in the past week. If anyone wishes to discuss how I can improve, please know I'm here for that conversation.

Maintaining professionalism and kindness in our communication is crucial, and I admit I haven't always met that standard. I'm genuinely committed to doing better, which is why I'm writing to you now.

Regarding Pondersource, I informed them over a year ago that imec was not interested in their solicitations and asked them to please cease. They have not honored our polite requests, leading to my frustration and subsequent unacceptable failure in communication.

Our core goal is advancing technology, and I take full responsibility for any disruptions or misunderstandings I may have caused. Your understanding and support mean a lot as we work together towards our shared objectives.

With heartfelt apologies and warm regards,

Ruben
