Yikes -- I must not have been clear. No issues -- I'm happy with the brakes. I was just sharing my experiences with this particular cantilever, and seeing if anyone else had thoughts on these. The majority of cantilever arms (at least from Shimano) seem to mount the brake shoe outboard of the arm, so it was curious to me that these were opposite of that.
