"When the issue is quite clear from the docs" See, there ya go. To me it wasn't clear, still isn't thus why I asked the question. There is a saying "You don't understand it until you do." This encompasses software development so perfectly. Think of so many developers who struggle with learning OOP, you struggle endlessly until you reach that aha! moment then you don't understand why it was so hard to understand. You must have struggled with something along those lines in your career, so maybe a little sympathy would go a good distance. If not, at least be empathetic because we are not all l337 programmers.
"As for the docs quality, are we talking on the same project? Did you try to find docs for NServiceBus once?" Are you serious? I clearly stated that this is not saying anything bad about NH as MOST OPEN SOURCE PROJECTS SUFFER THE SAME LACK OF DOCUMENTATION. I am not going to get in a "Oh yeah, well this one is even worse...." argument as it would be fruitless. "And using "pronto" in german means: DO IT RIGHT NOW AND CALL ME SIR!" So, you didn't take the time to consider his name, his grammar, and his usage of language to reach a fairly confident level of certainty that he is American? I don't know if he is American or not, but from what I could tell I would assume he is. Also, not knowing his origin is even more reason to give leeway since words OBVIOUSLY (capitalization intended) have different inferences in different cultures and languages. I really don't want this to turn into a pissing match. I also don't intend for any of you to consider me as attacking NH or you as an individual. I will tell you now that it is not my intention nor desire to insult or call into question any of your abilities or ethics. I just feel it is important to keep a level of understanding in the open source community that by its own nature of being free and open to manipulation by developers you will be inviting all types and skill levels to use the product and ask questions. Finally, giving equal respect to all of those individuals will further the open source initiatives everywhere and despite all of this I truly believe you all want that otherwise you wouldn't be contributing to NH.
