I think you will continue to have difficulty getting respect on this matter as long as you show disrespect to those who have come before you. When you refer to the documentation as being f'ing stupid, and other disrespectful terms, you are in an indirect, or depending on your intent, directly insulting the people who have done their best, as *volunteers* in most cases, to provide the existing documentation. Text is never F'ing, Stupid, or any of the other terms you refer to as it being. However it can be uninformative, hard to read, confusing, and even plain wrong. But it is only text, and does not have a mind of it's own. Referring to it as if it does, in such angry tones, reflects back on yourself and gives others a poor impression of you. At the start, you choose to approach this matter as a personal and competitive agenda, ie.. You vs those who came before you. Is this really the correct way to do this? You don't have to insult those who came before you in order to make your case. If you do, then maybe your case isn't strong enough. But even this is wrong because it isn't a competition. I suppose that if you respectfully offer something even a little better it would be respectfully accepted, after due review of course. You will probably even get many helpful suggestions along they way because you will have created a situation where every one wins. But by approaching it in the way you are, you make it very hard for people to support you, because to do so, they have to take on the role of losers in order for you to be a winner. Just some thoughts, you might consider. Cheers, and good luck with whatever aproach you decide. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
