Facts? As I explained in another post, "encouraging" someone to submit a patch without a clue about the poster's abilities or resources is offensive. > "begging for a fix on comp.lang.python is ..." I didn't see the OP "begging" for anything. >"His suggestion that his time is worth more than that of anyone else..." again (as the OP pointed out) no such claim was made. > "and yes, you are being incredibly rude and insulting" By responding in kind? I thought he was quite restrained given the provocation. > "The way that you have been acting..." Funny, I thought he was posting to c.l.p. Sounds like he is a petulant 6 year old child. In virtually every one of your posts you said things that I certainly would have been offended by. > "You're also missing that *I'm trying to help you*" I hope you understand that I'm trying to help *you*? You don't need to bother clarifying, your meaning is clear. It was the insulting tone you (and some others) expressed that meaning in, while attacking the OP for being "rude" that I found grossly unfair. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
