Development benefits are not "politics". Easier distribution is not "politics". More responsive upstream developers are not "politics". You ignoring all of these points and more that have been brought up, some by me, *is* evidently "politics" -- because you are seeking a political capitulation to your willfully ignorant demands. Politics *lose*, so far, and for that I am grateful. . . . but if it makes you feel better to whisper to yourself that all opposition to your position (even when you ignore it and have not bothered to actually read and understand it) is just "politics", go ahead, as long as it doesn't perpetuate this wholly unnecessary griping on the mailing list. -- Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ]
