Am I enjoying it? More like regretting it... But its a choice I made so
I am sticking with it for now. Despite it all!!!!

Why then is EFL and E not more popular and used more?

That says a lot right there...

That is subject to opinion. The same could be said about me...
I come from the South and the streets. Respect is HUGE!!!
I doubt there are any around with my unique background...

Sorry to have my own opinions and a personality clearly none of you all
have come across in your many years... You would be quite surprised as
to the reality of things...

Funny how at major events like Linux World. I never had such problems
as a public face. Meeting with thousands...

What support did I get in the first place? My experience as a new
developer to this community has been horrendous!!!! Not sure it could
get much worse. Yet your claiming my experience to be otherwise?

I have pointed this out to you personally. Reading Samsung Open Source
blog, I have no one to thank for taking me under their wing, helping
me, etc  In fact I have the opposite, people to blame vs thank...

My post was entirely professional and supported with
links for proof rather than just opinion. Read his posts on that task...

I guess all of Cedric's conduct on that task was professional,
warranted, no personal insults, 100% technical in nature, addressed the
issues in the task, and so on...

It is exactly this type of defense of undefendable behavior that will
hurt a project. You all had problems before me. You all have problems
after me. These people are not leaving over me... I fail to see those
leaving making things that much better... They have had years to turn
things around...

They maybe the reason others are not coming to the project. Thus such
massive stuff coming from a few... Maybe others do not want to work
with them? Does anyone ever consider that? Or just keep patting each
other on the back...
