My explanations went largely unnoticed and unappreciated (you are apparently an exception). The net result (lots of activity on baz) became the fact around which spin was constructed that drew users away from tla and spread myths about how unreasonable I was. That harmed opportunities for busking and it harmed opportunities to start-up a business around tla. I found the whole thing rather odd since there really was no need for that kind of "competition" between Canonical and me but there it was. >> Maintaining a project takes up a lot of time/money. > I disagree, it takes a lot of patience though. Well, it was more than full-time work for me. I'm still feeling pretty exhausted. -t _______________________________________________ Gnu-arch-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-arch-users GNU arch home page: http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnu-arch/
