Calm down ... you're taking this way too personally.  Most of us have 
jobs and are trying to simultaneously learn Java or Python or XML or PHP 
or whatever, and most of us are trying to do our part to help out with 
open source projects like Fink at the same time.  Why not just spend 
that time and energy getting it into the FAQ?

Fine. Do you want to argue the parenthesized afterthoughts of my email, 
or just add the article to the FAQ?  This is exactly the point I was 
trying to make -- that instead of picking nits or crying, why not just 
make the necessary changes and be done with it?
