Perhaps. But doing the very same thing on one package but refusing to do it onto another causes a question. I would consider it polite if those question could be answered with a short sentence. I did not even ask ftpmaster to do something but just to drop a not if there is a problem on my side. I just tried to be helpful.

Sorry, I fail to see a relation to the question. > If you want to know what you're talking about, you're probably going to > have to wait until someone from ftpmaster explains it to you, probably > in words of one syllable or less. This would be enough. I even can cope with quite rude answers and I think I are even capable to keep my politeness. And I repeat once more: The job which might have been done (which I think in my complete ignorance of facts and complete lack of knowledge) would have spend less time than answering a mail with some words. > Doing that will also take time and > energy that could otherwise be used for productive work, so it's highly > unlikely to happen in the near future. I tried to keep this in mind every time but the behaviour in this actual case seems to be a logical contradiction. Logical contradictions don't let me sleepo well, sorry. > As far as the release is concerned, when there's something to be > announced, it will be. Good news - it's fine for me. > Enough with the angst-ridden whining already. Everything really is Its perfectly all right for me if you or others think that some people are whining. I try to avoid such offends in my mails. Kind regards Andreas. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
