Hi all,
our 1.9.0 announcement got a little bit of news coverage, which may or
may not be interesting for anyone here. Of course, the 1.9.0 release
wasn't supposed to be announced everywhere because we clearly said that
this was a development release.
Anyway: There is one article on gnomesupport.org
http://gnomedesktop.org/node/2585 which has 14 friendly comments.
And there is also a slashdot entry
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/02/09/1853239 , posted by someone
I don't know, and (of course) the slashdot "community" of trolls and
slashers and a small minority of serious discussions doesn't have too
many friendly things to say. Surprisinly enough, a non-negligible
fraction of comments is relatively friendly and even seems to have
understood the point of an "unstable release, intended for developers
and tester", in stark contrast to the majority of "first post" comments
:-) . The most fun comments talk about this release being "the end of
dependence nightmares"
http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=176866&cid=14683053 ; or "I wish I
had the time to bug-test v1.9, but I don't, so I'll tip a little more
;-)" http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=176866&cid=14685703 ; or "In
general, I dislike the quality of most OSS software, but I like the way
GnuCash is run," and "I always get a helpful response... Most of the
time, someone named Derek is the one responding "
