I am still trying to figure out what it is that drives Linux developers. What seems clear is that it is not a desire to provide useful software.
Sad.
Sad is your effort to impose your desires on those who provide their efforts w/o renumeration, and, at least in this particular instance, any appreciation. That is the tone of your post!
I can't impose anything, and I have no illusions about that. I didn't realize that criticism is prohibited. Perhaps doing a half-job and ignoring documentation is the right way to go after all. Linux, by the way, is not the only OS in which developers produce software without remuneration. Having used OS/2 for many years, I confess that I am seriously spoiled. -- Stan Goodman Qiryat Tiv'on Israel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
