"Whoever undertakes to set himself up as a judge of Truth and Knowledge is shipwrecked by the laughter of the gods." (Albert Einstein) > Majority != wisdom. Maintainer = credit. "Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value." (Albert Einstein) - --- Seriously. This kind of argumentation is really not going to be productive. Can we please discuss *why* something is wrong instead of just *blaming* people for being wrong? Then we can all learn something. Throwing crap at each other will just be make things messier. Having a humble attitude will always open up doors, while being arrogant closes them. I have higher expectations of this community than what such responses contains. Most of us here is not here to receive credits. We are here because we want to make things better - through co-operation! And to co-operate, we need to show each other respect. Then we, as a group, can get wiser and the result will be better. kind regards, David Sommerseth -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk/p59UACgkQDC186MBRfroxhACfd9hJI0MXTbnX/O3+WYlry4UG tXIAnjXS8bREAiks8TNQ7gFyAainRwLs =2ieZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
