Allow me to be more specific: I gave you the opportunity to persuade me that re-basing the patches would be helpful ... that it would be something other than a completely futile waste of my time. You chose the example of textranslate step and scroll. It probably wouldn't have been my first choice, but it is the example on the table, and will serve the purpose. Think of it as a test-flight. If you ask me to re-base this patch and then don't even look at it, I am *not* persuaded to re-base any of the other patches. There is a multi-year track record of patches not being looked at, and other bad behavior. If anybody wants to persuade me that things are better now, I'm waiting to be persuaded. The ball's in your court. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
