Hi Jeff,
I promised myself to ignore whatever spawned from the remainders of
this thread, but decided to peek anyway, and I'm glad to have
stumbled on this one:

... we're not nice people; or rather, it's irrelevant whether we are.
That's certainly a /nice/ way to put it! I agree. :)

I've only been reading for about a month now, and I find this group
to be very reasonable and dedicated.
Let's conclude with(*): one simply reaps what one sows here.
Ask a straightforward question, and you will get a straightforward
answer. Be smart, and you will get smart answers. Start off by
irritating us, and... Well, from time to time, one of us will bite
and irritate you back. That is: if you're lucky. ;) Mostly,
irritating non-questions are simply ignored.
What I find so peculiar in this case is that, on the one hand we are
complimented on our website for giving the impression of 'FOP as a
product' --All hail Web Maestro Clay, here--, which I take to be a
good thing in Joe's eyes, unless we misunderstood each other there as
well.
On the other hand, it raises the question: Is our 'Getting Help' page
really that hard to find, then?
Here we have a user, who submits Bugzilla reports. OK, so he gets the
usual treatment: a simple concise statement that a certain bug was
fixed in the trunk in one case. A polite question to please attach a
small FO that demonstrates the bug in the other. In yet a third there
is even an intent to gather the information necessary to implement
the missing feature.
Oh well, I could go on for pages...
As a tribute to Joe, I think I'm going to have a crack at
implementing fo:inline-container very soon ;)
Later
Andreas
