Please read as this is your challenge back should you actually step up
to it with the usual line "shut up and hack" type of answer.
This tread now spread on tech@ too and include may be 3 or 4 treads all
referring to todo lists, janitor and all.
I don't find it interesting anymore and plenty of answers were provided,
but again nothing is done about it so in the same spirit of the well
knows shut up and hack, I decided to show again how useless this might
be and I would be more then happy to be proven wrong big time. I will
even pay the beer if I am proven wrong for good.
Now to close this for good and to show as many time in the pass that it
will not go anyway, I setup yet one more users maintain lists here:
http://todo.openbsdsupport.org/
or here if you prefer:
http://openbsdsupport.org/todo/
same place anyway, but the URL is obvious I guess in the first one.
There is nothing there and I challenge anyone that complain in the last
week or so about not having a list and that it would be useful and allow
great things to happened to do it.
I WILL PROVIDE AN ACCOUNT to anyone that is actualy serious in doing
this list and that will take it on. Collect all the variosu todo lists,
make it clean and real here, not with funny pictures, design, and all.
Just the list. It could be even as simple as a simple list of URL to
places that have todo already. I don't think it will go anyway, but in
the same spirit of showing the true color of winners, I raise yet again
this variation on the same idea and same challenge as before.
I have that domain as far back as 2004 following yet an other endless
discussion about documentations/howto and all.
Yes, I got minimal amount of contributions to it after all was setup but
the wining stop. Just no progress however. I do have very minimal
contribution in my inbox that I haven't been able to update yet as for
lack of time on my part, but at the same time I sure do not get a
regular flow of updates either in the 6+ years it exists.
I know it will not go anywhere, but that's not the developers jog to
make these lists that no one look at anyway, but many have done so.
Also, I want to make it VERY CLEAR that this have nothing to do with the
project what so ever. It's not endorse or supported by the project what
so ever and it not associated with it in any shape or form. If you have
a problem with that, take it with me, not the project. Theo knows about
it, he told me log ago that was a waste of time and useless things to do
and he was 100% right! But it still exists to stop the wining if nothing
else as looks like we have more noise on the list always as time pass.
So, may be if the only contribution this does is to reduce it, then so
be it and just that is worth my time.
Now, take the challenge on and show that everyone was wrong by doing
your part.
Contact me off list if you are serious and will do the list and i will
give you access as long as you are not abusing of it.
Hopefully this will close the subject and if anything good come out of
it then great.
Let see where it goes from here. The ball is in your camp now. You want
a list, then make it so.
Best,
Daniel
