Sorry, what kind of "side attack" are You talking about? ! we do not deserve. For me, an insinuation that some ! regression was deliberate is insulting and demotivating. What regression are You taking about? I am not insinuating anything, since the commit logs clearly state that this was done fully deliberate, after an educated evaluation about how best to save some space. But Your reaction now is very typical for a certain kind of people all busy to protect those in power against those considered plebs, even if it requires "alternate facts". ! This is exactly the kind of attitude that drives volunteers ! away from any organization. What in God's name are You talking about ??? ! Please consider your words more carefully next time. Sorry, but why, and in what regard? I am not speaking about any regression of any means, nor have I intended any insinuation. I only spent a night sleepless, to finally find out that it all was done deliberately. I don't understand the reasons - there certainly are some. But still I want to give as much feedback as that this does really hurt. And obviousely I am not amused. During the night I was in the process of filing a bug report, but I thought I should first do careful and extensive research, like testing all the possible combinations, and reading all the documents from since 14.0. So I did that, and only by that I could figure out that this is a deliberate action, and so I cancelled the bug report. But as You don't want such thoroughly researched feedback - so why don't you just make the commit logs a secret we ordinary users are not allowed to read? Then we can no longer understand what was done on purpose, and must file a bug report for everything. cheerio, PMc
