Re: The tortured release of 2.3.0 Windows binaries

I use a Lamy Safari with a European EF nib; it works just fine. If I need a finer line, then I use a Pilot Petit 1 with a Japanese EF nib. Seriously, though, folks. I suggest that OT advocacies of OSs or of writing instruments or of sexual practices not provoke mass responses. Look at
