Clive, It seems to me you have every right to be angry about recent developments, and as far as I'm concerned you're the Saint ... but as they say "it's enough to try the patience of a Saint" and how you've managed to hold your tongue in public I really don't know.
F'wit is the right word. Surely anyone with the an iota of common sense would realise the relative immaturity of software development on ARM based devices in general and how dependent it is on Community effort for each specific device. In all cases, it has been hardware first and software second. If you buy into the ARM World, you buy into that risk, and as far as running Linux is concerned, it's not really for the non-technical user (or those who are not prepared to put the effort in to learn enough to use it). Except, of course, when one or more talented people get together to give of their expertise and time freely for the benefit of others. > I really want to answer this, but it is rather a long answer and right > now, other things, (getting the repo hosted elsewhere), are more > important. I'll leave you to do the important things, but I'm keen to hear you answer. In the meantime, I'd like to think I'm speaking for the silent majority when I say a lot of people still want this project to succeed in whatever shape or form is possible, and hopefully they will continue to offer whatever support, morale or practical, they can. I'm just a talentless old schmuck with a smattering of Linux, but if there's anything I can do to stop this project being flushed down the bog, just ask. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Krisbee's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=59080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=99395 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
