You have always been helpful to me. Always. I'm sorry I didn't
recognize your intentions, and try to say things a bit more
smoothly. I just get in such a hurry, and I know if we were
sitting face to face discussing this, you would know by my
tone and delivery, that I was being appreciative, yet critical
at the same time. You would have had no issue with our discussion.

The Internet is so difficult about trying to pass along tone
and delivery.

And *wow* back to you! :-)

This whole recommendation thing started a month or so back when
another Editor added Gimp-print to the Gimp page as a recommended
dependency and I asked why. There was quite a bit of discussion
about it. Bottom line from the editor who put it in there was:
"because I felt it was proper."

Yes, subjectiveness was discussed.


> Again, wow. I wish I knew why I deserve such a response...

My apologies if this came off too strong. Miguel, you have always been
a supporter, and I appreciate that. Please know that I have always
taken your messages in the highest regard.


> Neither me nor the BLFS editors have one, so I'll just STFU.

Please don't. Your opinion is valued.
