Circus in the sense of spectacle, albeit a one man, negative dog affair.

No doubting that he's been extremely influential in the promotion of VoIP at
no inconsiderable cost to himself. His recent appeal for members to divvi
up a little of their own cash to help with further development has likely
fallen on deaf ears though, so he's probably in a 'stuff 'em all then' mood.
Not being much of a philanthropist myself, that would perhaps be my
attitude.
