I had some ideas in the next to last paragraph of my other reply, which |
17 |
I'm not going to reply to unless you reply there. That had a idea on |
18 |
how to do things in a better way. First thing tho, some need to stop |
19 |
ignoring the problem. If ignoring it was going to fix it, then it |
20 |
should have fixed it long ago. A few need to try to discuss the problem |
21 |
and those solutions offered instead of trying to shut down anything on |
22 |
the topic. It's not like people outside Gentoo don't already know about |
23 |
some of the Gentoo issues. |
24 |
|
25 |
I believe that if people wanted to, this could be improved. Thing is, |
26 |
doing the same thing for years is not fixing it. There are a lot of |
27 |
good people who do try, Rich is one of them, but it needs to be talked |
28 |
about honestly and have more than one person trying to come up with |
29 |
solutions. Someone else may read my idea and then add something to it |
30 |
and make Gentoo a whole lot better. That in turn could improve other |
31 |
things as well. I'm at least trying to start a discussion and get what |
32 |
this is about in the open. |
33 |
|
34 |
When I'm on -user, I sometimes try to help people even if it is nothing |
35 |
more than googling for a answer. As we know, doing google searches from |
36 |
different places gives different results at times. Even if the person |
37 |
needing help did a google search but came up empty, that doesn't mean I |
38 |
will get the same results. The point is, we need to be trying to help |
39 |
each other, devs or not. I actually like that Rich is on -user and he |
40 |
does help when he can. To have a dev do that, it does change the list a |
41 |
bit. It's a positive thing. |
42 |
|
43 |
Still, I'm open to trying to work out something that a dev or other |
44 |
person can take and try to improve Gentoo. It's going to require |
45 |
someone willing to listen and discuss it first tho. If not, this sort |
46 |
of thing will happen again until it is dealt with. |
