Sagar,

You've probably noticed that we have representatives from dozens of suppliers here on element14—companies like the Raspberry Pi Foundation, Freescale, Texas Instruments, and many more.

Actually, I haven't noticed dozens of supplier representives from RPF, Freescale, and TI, etc.

I've noticed Jason Kridner from TI/Beagleboard.org post recently, but not any uncivil replies.

I've noticed Gert van Loo, designer of the gertboard, post recently, but not any uncivil replies.

I've noticed some uncivil comments directed for example at Cambridge or Oxford folks,

but not at any supplier reps here, and I don't think any of the participants in that discussion

show Cambridge or Oxford as their University.

I've noticed a rant directed at BBB, but it didn't appear to be serious.

If the supplier reps here are mostly anonymous, please encourage them to identify themselves.

I think it works better all around if supplier reps are known. If you can post a list of the known

supplier reps here, that would be wonderful.

I agree about maintaining good conduct within the Element 14 community.

Treat everyone like you wish to be treated.

Never post anything you wouldn't want your mother to read.

If someone upsets you, wait at least 24 hours before you respond. Hot blood leads to bad and regretted posts.

Remember, we are all just friends here.

Hi Sagar,

As a global distributor, Premier Farnell manages relationships with hundreds of suppliers, vendors, and strategic partners. You've probably noticed that we have representatives from dozens of suppliers here on element14—companies like the Raspberry Pi Foundation, Freescale, Texas Instruments, and many more.

Is there a list somewhere of these representatives? I have tried using the "filter by company" feature at

http://www.element14.com/community/people

but it seems to list only companies starting with the letter 'a'.
