> forum but Darrell, COME ON, with an answer like that.....Have you ever > considered going to work for Micro$oft? Stuff like this is what gives
Tek, Darrell didn't say anything that hasn't been said 10's if not hundreds of times by many others in this forum. DEVINFO is for development discussion, not tech. support questions. Don't get me wrong, it's very tempting to post a question to this forum as there is ALOT of talent in here. If folks didn't keep the forum on course, it would quickly turn into a "free for all." Go back to the e-smith.org web site and have a look at the selection of available forums. You'll see one called experienced users forum. Use this forum for posting question. > Stuff like this is what gives the open-source "community" a bad name. > Penguins are supposed to help You must be very new to SME and this community. I think you'll find that both the experienced users (e.g. Darrell) and all of the Mitel folks that listen to the forums give ALOT of their own time and talent to helping folks with free tech. support. I think maybe you're a little bent out of shape because someone mentioned paid for support and open-source in the same sentence. Maybe you view this as a bad thing, but I certainly don't. You have the option to either spend the time to figure it out on your own (i.e., the typical open-source software approach) or pay someone to give you their undivided attention to help you solve the problem. How can that possibly be bad? > I hope this message serves to remind others of the "open source" and > "free information for all" policies that Linux was founded upon. On the contrary, I think all you've accomplished with your message is creating yet another off topic thread. -- Greg J. Zartman, P.E.
