I think you mean 'versions that run with known bugs' ? Still bugged I'm |
5 |
afraid. |

It wasn't open all the time & no i was talking about 'mailing' or maybe |
14 |
poking on IRC. Note that I myself was unavailable during this period. |
15 |
|
16 |
Besides the bug in question got fixed in a day, so before that point |
17 |
there's still an unexplained gap ? And you obviously knew about it, |
18 |
because you already had marked it stable... |

A nice misinterpretation, once again you try to play it on the person & |
29 |
on a totally unrelated example, while I even told you thats sort of a |
30 |
weak way to go about arguing your case (you don't have much else i |
31 |
guess). Maybe if you read it objectively, you would would be able to |
32 |
give a fair judgement, but i guess thats way beyond you. |
33 |
|
34 |
Basically what you are saying here comes down to this : "Judge, they |
35 |
steal too, so I should be allowed to steal as well.." I don't think that |
36 |
holds up anywhere. |
37 |
|
38 |
Anyway, were open to changes there, unlike some devs here. |

Again on the person, you really don't have any objective, sound |
46 |
arguments do you ? |
47 |
|
48 |
Well I'd say that it doesn't really matter, because in the end it is not |
49 |
your decision and I know most devs are more objective than you in this |
50 |
matter. I actually do not think I can convince you of anything because |
51 |
you are so stuck up in your own way of thinking. Thats exactly what this |
52 |
is about, because if you would be reasonable then this wouldn't be an |
53 |
issue in the first place. You are afraid of losing some of the freedom |
54 |
you enjoy now and won't trade it for better QA, it's very human to hang |
55 |
on to every scrap of imagined power you got. |
