hey Ujwal, u talked about problems in OSS and Standarization in OSS.
Its not a new things we have a problem in OSS bcoz if we dun have problem using them, the version control system would have been nil. And thats how OSS evolved large number of peoples in internet soling all those problems, but apart from problem, we still love them bcoz with ur, mine and everyone's problem OSS is growing, thats how community develops, my this i dun mean to underestimate the problems u had, i am sorry for what debian did to you. I am scared with debian :( now. The standardization issue is major, but with community developers, it hard to stop them, Free as Freedom what GNU signifies and Standarization sotimes bounds us. Well i dun wanna oppose anyone here but just wanted to say if there are problems they meant to be solved, so please do not get frustrated by this, i am really sorry about what happened to you, but bro plz do not leave "us" alone.
