Nope the mistake is mine and I did just point it out in a response to Atanu separately. > And since I use Ubuntu I am registered member or Launchpad and have filed a > few bug reports there -- but I am _not_ a techie.

You do write technical content and knowing how software development in a FOSS scenario works is kind of expected. A writer and a passionate GNU/Linux user would be aware of how to ensure that his/her problems are logged into appropriate defect tracking systems *and* end up helping others - wouldn't you agree that it is the basis on which FOSS develops ? It is good to know that you do file bugs on LP. But, filing bugs does not require one a techie (whatever that may mean). So, if you are interested in strawman arguments feel free. I would not agree to the concept pushed across by Atanu and you that bug filing systems are not meant for users. They could do with enhancements and simplifications, but for that too you need to file requests. Not just throw up hands and say 'I am not technical'. -- http://www.gutenberg.net - Fine literature digitally re-published http://www.plos.org - Public Library of Science http://www.creativecommons.org - Flexible copyright for creative work _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
