OK, this is it. I _demand_ (this time round) any of the developers to come forward and authoritatively state what is the status of this list.
I have too much work to do and not much time to fool around either with Fritz or with anyone else. I DO NOT - REPEAT : DO NOT WANT TO USE WEB-BASED FORAE. I've had enough with all this and want to do my job by mailing list. If you, people think we are human fodder, just say so and we can get on with our business as usual (and off your list). In the mean time, either Fritz (can you hear me Sir ? I am writing this and it is addressed to you Sir !) or anyone else from this project come forward and state the status of the project. Are we allowed to post to this list ? Will our answers be met with the appropriate seriousness such a project _demands_ ? OR are we playing around with perl and other toys ? If this list is no longer functional and opted to answer our questions, then I WILL : 1. Report this to sourceforge and the open source community if they don't do anything, I will : 2. Stop using this piece of software however good it is. 3. Go to commercial product and do my job. 4. Advertise to anyone I can the way people are treated when they ask questions. I can do this (and then some) with far superior products for the _minimum_ cost. Either treat us like you're supposed to, or (at least I, for one) am off this list and stop using this product, Enough is _indeed_ enough. spyros tsiolis --- On Tue, 9/6/09, Jeroen van Aart <[email protected]> wrote: > From: Jeroen van Aart <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [Assp-user] How do you get into the forums? > To: "For Users of ASSP" <[email protected]> > Date: Tuesday, 9 June, 2009, 10:48 PM > Matti Haack wrote: > > Please send it to me off list.
