People have said that from the way James talks sometimes, they got the impression that Joss didn't like him very much. Maybe because he's never involved him in one of his projects since Buffy, but I think that just has more to do with scheduling. I don't get the vibe that Joss doesn't like him, maybe he didn't used to, but I don't think that implies to now. Still, James is always saying different things. He'll say one thing at a convention, and then say something completely different at another...lol!
