I for one didn't find your comment "snarky" at all. Many people are so "religious" about open source that they interpret a (IMO perfectly valid in certain circumstances) suggestion to use COTS software as an insult to the recipient. Sometimes such a suggestion is meant that way, e.g. "Maybe you should just stick with Windows" may be intended to infer "what a wimp/idiot, isn't able/willing to learn *nix". But I took your suggestion as perfectly valid - if a user takes the attitude that a program "should have" well-written documentation designed for non-technical users to understand, and any program that doesn't is somehow deficient in his eyes, then perhaps he would be better served as a paying customer of a company he then has the right to complain to. My two cents to the OP - In the open-source world, if you think something's missing don't complain - jump in there and do it yourself, or sponsor someone else to do it. > And, please, excuse my English, I'm from Spain. Your English is excellent! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What You Don't Know About Data Connectivity CAN Hurt You This paper provides an overview of data connectivity, details its effect on application quality, and explores various alternative solutions. http://p.sf.net/sfu/progress-d2d _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
