Hi Egon,
Hartmut has said some things in his last post I'd also say, so I just respond to the
"rest":)

No prob, have done it here to 80 chars. OK? (hope I don't forget it on the other PCs

Your mail from the 16th of April, 2001:

Wenn Du vorhast weiter an der Aktuallisierung des deutschen PHP Handbuchs
mitzumachen, dann lass Dir doch von Rasmus Karma geben. Das funktioniert
in der Regel immer, wenn er auf der PHP-DEV Liste präsent ist. Da kann man
auch reinschreiben "Helping Egon with the German Translation." Ich soll ja
ohnehin Rasmus zum LinuxTag einladen und bei der Gelegenheit frag ich ihn
auch mal, ob ich Karma bekomme um die German Translators selber verwalten
zu können.

To be honest, "Karma" is a new term for me, even I know that there exists a toolkit
which can be used also for authentication. But OK, explain me what you really meant.
It isn't the point to get an account or not. What I mentioned as an example is, that
over weeks came absolutely NO answer. I could have mentioned also the not answering
mails even with contributions, not publishing contributed files because there no dirs
existing (OK, they're obsolete now, if pear gets really outsourced). And as you can
see I'm still here, and I can live with it. Maybe others won't. That's the point.
But I personally have to fight with things like "Do that..." and then "I've never
said...". So far to motivation....
I better interrupt now till my temp cooled down to less than 100°C.
Cu,
Thomas
