2. I asked you to inform me when the abovementioned bugs/defects are fixed, not to let me know if they aren't. So your answer was absolutely unnecessary.
i find this arrogant--as most of the discussion about KDE 3 -> 4.
it's ok to voice one's opinion when things are being worked out, but once it's decided where an opensource project goes, you can either use it or leave it. IMO it's the developers who own the code, not the most vocal group of users.
Well, what is arrogant is saying 'use it or leave it' when someone complains, especially if the person is a developer. And if the person is a developer for a company like Novell/openSUSE it is very unprofessional as well.
The questions I raised have been reported as bugs for a long time and many are still missing the fixes. But you do think that the adequate answer to those is "They will, as soon as you think they are worth your free time or money. If you cannot be bothered why would anyone else do you that favour?"
That post asked for the rude answer.

[disclaimer: i'm not a developer of anything, and not employed by novell either.] but if developing or helping to develop a piece of free software incurs the moral obligation to do it the way others demand--others who don't find it necessary to invest time or money themselves--there wouldn't be any developers around; or they would keep their code secret, only available to a closed group. what i do with my free time isn't up to me? -- phani. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
