  Why do you yell at me !?

 I'm sorry...  I didn't think I was yelling at you.  But if u feel I
 did so, I sincerely apologize, that was not my intention.

I know why  The vertical bar with a dot at the bottom is called an
exclamation point!  When you use it (Like this!!!) it makes what you
type very loud!  While that might be fun, it makes it difficult for
other people to understand your tone!!!  Are you angry?  Sad??  Or
just exited?!?? See what I mean???!?

Seriously, written communication is hard.  Just like with verbal
communication, calmly explaining a situation and nicely asking for
help is more likely to get results than using chat room jargon and
incomplete sentences.  Remember that many of us are old enough to have
been tought to read and write on paper, and honestly don't speak the
same written language.  Sticking to standard English will make it much
easier for folks like me to understand U. :)

Mea culpa.  But it would only have been ironic if I were criticizing
spelling, not usage.

You didn't punctuate your first sentence, by the way.  Smileys don't
count.  And your usage of the ellipsis is non-standard; it should
represent missing text.

Except that text wasn't missing.  You quoted it, remember?  And even
if not, it was *my* text and can't be inserted into your sentence
using an ellipsis.  Just give up, you can't win. :)

The original point was serious, by the way.  Screaming at developers
is a bad way to get tech support, and bass pumped didn't seem to
understand why Martin was annoyed.

Meanwhile, you are distracting Andy from updating the awaited supercharger

Yes, I do this already for months   at least since FlightGear uses
OpenAL. I did the initial checkout using this command:

  cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/cvs-repository co openal


 after doing a CVS login. I don't remember the password, though ..

Probably you are using a firewall which blocks your attempts - just an
idea,

It's not Fedora Core 2 per se. I checked out OpenAl a while back with no
trouble on FC2. Not tried updating recently, but last time I did, that
happened just fine too.

[Flightgear-devel] CVS for OpenAL

2005-06-27 Thread bass pumped
Sorry to bother you guys...  I know this is unrelated but I have to
ask.  Are you able to access CVS for OpenAL?  I followed the
instructions on the download page of openAL, but none of those
commands seem to work... in the sense everytime I try to login, it
just hangs, and I end up having to stop it.  I tried Cervisia, but the
same thing happens and Cervisia crashes.  Is this happening for
everyone or only me?
