I am sure that you will get more positive feedback if you follow this procedure.
I really was interested in pushing some of my patches in, because I think they are important, if not essential, and other people can benefit from them. However, I feel less and less motivated in doing so. I am using 1.5.svn, why do I have to care about others? I am still wondering why people do not like my local-layout-cls patch(es). Forcing users to put .layout and .cls in their respective places, using that lengthy and troublesome procedure, is *not* nice. Even latex allows local .cls file!
Obviously nobody has enough time, therefore everybody does what he cares about most.
Sure. My win/auto-view is the result of a really troublesome windows installation, local-layout is the result of trying to set up a thesis writing environment for others.... Bo
