Hi

I'm currently using libevent and saw on the site for libev that it claims to be 
better,
 and even says something about doxygen garbage in the website...

Sadly I find your reponse offensive and disrespectful. I was just asking since 
I was interested 
in your product, and was asking without acritude.

And about my email client, is just the corporate mail system (outlook) which I 
don't know much
 and little can do to accommodate to your personal preferences.

I think it's a failure how you treat new users that are interested in your 
product, good way to alienate people out of your
open source project.

Regards.

Pedro.

Maybe you should see a doctor about your issues then? This is a technical
forum, and I am afraid nobody here can help with your anxiety disorder.

Well, I consider CVS modern enough by my standards, but in general, I
chose software not based on (perceived) modernness, coolness, hype or
other such fatcors, but based on features such as stability, correctness,
usability and portability. And w.r.t source control systems, the ability
to work in a team.

A good comparison would be your and my e-mail program - my e-mail program
tries to hard to be interoperable, but is probably not what you would call
"modern" (text based and all). Your e-mail program (which is probably
way more moderen and probably has lots of shiny buttons to click) can't
even format text/plain correctly as per RFC, or at least, not in the
configuration you chose.

I would greatly prefer if, in the future, you could fix your program to
not send overly long lines, or use the correct content-type where such
lines are allowed.

To find another analogy, you could just as well ask why some people still
use vi or emacs to write code, when they could use open office instead -
"modernness" is simply not a useful concept.

Now, I have a question myself then: Did your question actually have a
purpose or were you just trying to troll?
