ACK! For the love of all that's holy, hear my plea: NOBODY SAID OR IMPLIED ANY SUCH THING! If you believe otherwise, please point out the exact text. > But I also hear from you all a willingness to help me, a newbie with all > sorts of newbie questions, figure out Cocoa, despite our differences. > That, I find gratifying. Absolutely! It's just that your complaint that "it's difficult" falls on deaf ears. We all know that (not really the documentation - it's hard because it's a vast, complex subject and no amount of refinement will make that go away completely). That's why this very mailing list exists. And the books. And the online tutorials. And the cocoadev wiki ... etc. Post your pointed questions and we'll all do our best to help. That much should be obvious from the traffic. If you have specific suggestions for making the documentation better, submit them. If the majority agrees, they'll submit those same suggestions ... and they *will* get implemented. Believe that. > You're all good people who are trying to convince someone who is part > Irish and part German and thoroughly stubborn.
