IceCat on Windows would be like wearing warm clothes in the cold in a bad neighborhood. The bad neighborhood being a proprietary operating system. Many people don't have the means or the knowledge to move out of such a neighborhood, but they'd like to enjoy some warmth, too. -M. 2016-12-28 21:31 GMT+02:00, Daniel Quintiliani: > So you wouldn't give a band-aid to someone who has just been raped? > > -- > > -Dan Q > > On Wed, 28 Dec 2016 18:18:00 +0100 (CET), wrote: > >> bleh... why would IceCat release on windows? that's like giving someone a >> bandaid if they need a doctor. the amount of hard work the devs do will be >> wasted on a release on a system that contradicts the very philosophical >> values of IceCat. that effort should be spent better making IceCat better >> where it matters. >> >> -- >> Securely sent with Tutanota.

Re: [Bug-gnuzilla] IceCat 45.5.1 for Windows?
bleh... why would IceCat release on windows? that's like giving someone a bandaid if they need a doctor. the amount of hard work the devs do will be wasted on a release on a system that contradicts the very philosophical values of IceCat. that effort should be spent better making IceCat better where it matters. -- Securely sent with Tutanota.
