This person even though having great ideas, needs an editor and a communicator liaison to help get the ideas across.

First suggestion is to separate out the personal greavances from the ideas for the project and present them as distinct issues.

There is a section of this posting that reads like what I would send to an HR department when trying to get accommodation.

In my own disgruntled situation, it took two months for me to craft something that touched, delicately, upon grievances. Finding the words was, sometimes, exhausting.

I can't speak for Vince, but he's clearly unhappy, so I give him plenty of slack with freedom of expression.

In as few words as possible: I resigned.

Pleasantly under the radar:

Sorry, it's not obvious from the links, but, where do I see that you resigned?

Whatever it was, I hope it wasn't the result of anything serious.

I think I see you over the freebsd subreddit; you're comments are almost always informative and helpful.
