Wow, I wasn't aware you had this kind of disdain for me. I'd be interested to know why. Yeah, I know, as you're reading this you're palming your forehead and going "wow! how can he be so oblivious!" But no, seriously. > statements that are so obviously uncalled for and egregiously rude, I > can't help it. > > This is over the top out of line, imho. My comment was not really meant to provoke, but I suppose that it could be taken that way, and for that I apologize. The point I'd've liked to have made is that yes - Walter has (obviously!) done a lot for D. Without him, D would not exist. But the fact is - and I doubt you'll find many who will disagree with me - it doesn't matter how awesome Walter is, or how much of a visionary he is, or how good his managerial skills are; DMDFE is just buggy, no offense meant to Walter as a person. That there are 30 new bugs posted to the bugzilla every month from a relatively small group of users is testament that DMDFE is buggy. And the current development model of "have people put things in bugzilla where there is a very good chance that they will never get fixed" and "be extremely skeptical of any and all patches that people submit" does not work. As I said - simple flow problem. 30 in, 15 out. Eventually the tank is going to overflow.
