This is a resend as my last post didn't make it...... apologies to anyone receiving it twice
Nick, Even though I've not replied to this thread so far, I now feel compelled to do so. I offered support for developing docs (I submitted PDF and PS versions of docs which were already available in text) and with the PHP admin scripts, the offer of help with the docs was turned down, and the help with the PHP scripts was encouraged and then dropped with no further communication from Idaya on the matter (there were also concerns with regard to allowing me CVS access) I'm not saying that Idaya didn't have valid reasons, or that there wasn't good grounds for their decision not to take up my offer of assitance. But my point is that your sweeping generalisation you just made is inaccurate (but then sweeping generalisations often are) I know of at least 2 other people who have offered to help with FreeVSD, but didn't offer the "right kind of help". Not everyone uses the list to broadcast moans, others are happy to sit back, watch and wait. I'm sure my case and that of the 2 others are unlikely to be isolated? Just my 2 Cents Regards T. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nick Burrett" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, November 30, 2001 9:42 AM Subject: Re: Goodbye FreeVSD, welcome OpenVDS (developers read here) > > Since this announcement, there seems to be several people suddenly offering > their services to enhance this project. > > I'm just wondering why none of this voluntary work was never offered > prior to Idaya announcing a non-free version of FreeVSD ? > > Curiously, > > Nick. ------------------------- The freeVSD Support List -------------------------- Subscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?body=subscribe%20freevsd-support Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?body=unsubscribe%20freevsd-support Archives: http://freevsd.org/support/mail-archives/freevsd-support -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
