and this would be better if people got involved in the beta process, so that bugs could be fixed before we go into deep freeze and not like now when many try with the last RC, and find a bug, and reports it when the master ISOs has been sent... > Speaking as one of those D/l users i say > MAKE A DISTRO WORTH PAYING FOR AND I WILL PAY FOR IT!! > this is a catch22, ... if more would pay, mdk would be able to pay more employees, wich would make an even better distro, more QA, more testing, more h/w, wich would sell better... and how do you define "A DISTRO WORTH PAYING FOR" ... if you dig long enough you will always find some bug thast annoys you, does that mean it's not worth paying for.... Or as it reminds me of an employee in a company I used to work for... He complained about getting to low salary, and said if they would pay him better, he would work harder... >From the management I heard the complaints about him being slow, so they had no reason to pay him more... So who is right and who is wrong? When both think they are right and the other part is wrong... Does the management have too high expectations, or is it the employee that thinks he's better than he actually is? But, as always... everyone has to choose for themselves what to do, as no one can force you to decide one way or another... It's the ultimate freedom of choice... > Speaking of which will the dvd make christmas? AFAIK they should, ... -- Regards Thomas
