May be you need to add a link to arabeyes site for a license called GPL+(learning). Thanks, I got that we will not tolerate your contribution forever if you won't learn CVS within a time limit; they are only 4 commands and if it took you more than 2 hours you are in a problem! Thanks teacher! > No one was/is being forced to do _anything_ -- don't like it, don't do it. Our way or the highway! _anything_ here if you recall means we put some restrictions to accept your contribution to our servers. Yes, I don't like it and hence I won't contribute via arabeyes. period. > If we disagree on how to do things then so be it there is NO need to keep > rehashing the past and/or constantly pointing your finger at that which > you dislike (not to mention that this is utterly unprofessional).

Surely, you won't tell me not to speak with others about how arabeyes got this point wrong, do you? I just told Mr. Sameer about my experince with this issue so he has better save his time. > (from our end) to why we were saying what we were saying.

We at arabic-fedora.org are doing all our work voluntarily at https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-trans-ar mailing list. We would never say no to someone who would say I want to contribute translation on paper and don't want to learn CVS. We would be very happy if someone would say I will hire some translators to help you in 'myway'. We would never blame ourself if we had fewer volunteers compared with arabeyes. We are not trying to compete with you so you don't need to be happy for the our failure if ever happned! We are doing our best for the benefit of others and to satisfy an inner feeling in ourselves and hence no need for complications. -- Munzir Taha PGP Key available gpg --recv-keys --keyserver www.mandrakesecure.net F0671821 Telecommunications and Electronics Engineer Mandrake Club Member Maintainer of the OpenBugs project page at http://www.arabic-fedora.org/munzir/OpenBugs.html Maintainer of Fedora Arabic Translation Project https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-trans-ar CIW Designer, ICDL, MOUS, Linux+, LPI 101 New Horizons CLC, Riyadh, SA _______________________________________________ General mailing list [email protected] http://lists.arabeyes.org/mailman/listinfo/general
