Wayne,
Please allow me to reply and ask that you show greater respect for
Warren. Your newness to this group denies you the knowledge that Warren
Togami has been more instrumental to the mass adoption of open source
software than any other human I know. His tireless (and thankless)
efforts to answer nearly any tedious question posted to this group has
earned him great reverence. Your request that he not express his ideas
to this newsgroup is VERY unwelcome. As you can read from Warren's
response to your flame, he is more than willing to help be a part of
this solution that you seek. This is how a man thinks and responds to
such taunts. Having Warren assist you and other WP8 users will be to
your advantage. Your condescending and uninformed comments admonishing
Warren to refrain from his insights are inappropriate at best. You will
find a wealth of assistance here if you take the time to learn who your
allies are. Please keep the tone more civil in future posts.
Sincerely,
R. Scott Belford

Warren-
Since you really have not used WordPerfect 8 for Linux long enough to
make educated comment, I would appreciate that you not publicly discuss
it, at least until you have a chance to let me show you why it is still
superior to anything else, including many Windows-based wordprocessors.
A "dead-end" product doesn't necessarily mean that it is less
functional. Many WordPerfect/Windows users still use version 8. A
newer version does not mean that it is better.
But, anyway, there is an effort going to garnish enough WP8/Linux users
so that we can force Corel to at least re-compile it against the new
kernel and new XFree. Your uneducated comments are undermining our
efforts.
Best,
W. Wayne Liauh, Ph.D., J.D. Attorney and Counselor at Law
