Thank you for giving me the oportunity to share. Thank you for the comments. It is funny having worked with big closed source companies I have always found that the openSource world is more open to changes. However there is an important point which you might have missed. OpenSource is a world of doers, we are not told what to do (like in companies), so if you really want to change things you need to involve yourself. In your case you could e.g. - write specific design changes as bugzilla issues - offer to help with testing - maybe do some of the design and not forgetting documenting it. rgds jan i > Best Regards > Remigiusz Fajfer > -- Sent from My iPad, sorry for any misspellings.
