Do you actually have a point to make, or is this just generic trolling? I mean seriously - stop whining. You are met with scorn not because we don't care about our users, but because your questions are either naive or pugilistic. We don't really have time for either sort - that is what debian-mentors and slashdot, respectively, are for. > I guess this is to be expected, all societies started with lofty > goals and high ideals eventually fall prey to a similar fate. What fate? I guess I haven't noticed that Debian has fallen prey to any fate other than being extremely popular, with a solid userbase numbering in the millions (including a lot of very loyal fans), highly respected everywhere for both our philosophical and technical standards. I guess all those loyal users stick around because we don't care about them? I think your problem is that you have confused "our priorities are our users..." with "our priority is everything icelinux believes might help some subset of our users". To which I can only say, get over yourself. -- Peter Samuelson | org-tld!p12n!peter | http://p12n.org/
