Pretty much all of Mark Galbreath's posts to this mailing list are IMO either rude, obnoxious or irrelevant. Its obvious that he has no interest in Struts or contributing constructively to this community and his only purpose is to disrupt. Below I include a selection of the rubbish he has posted - I find this unacceptable and propose that we remove/bar him from the struts lists.
Niall http://struts.apache.org/ http://www.mail-archive.com/user%40struts.apache.org/ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Galbreath" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Struts Users Mailing List" user@struts.apache.org * I just asked one of our analysts about this and she said, "Don't be silly, it's ALL about the TOOL!" When I asked her what she meant, exactly, she replied, "The bigger the tool, the more room for error." "And that's a GOOD thing?" I asked astounded. She assured me that the best programmers she ever dated had the biggest tools. * Us "old" guys still know a quiche-eater like you when we see one. If you can't debug with Lint, get the hell off the keyboard. *I have noticed over the years that those who are the most adamant about the virtues of IDEs are the worst programmers...and think emacs is a kid's meal from McDonalds. * Craig? Is that old fart still around? I thought he was deeply involved in JSF now. * Does it spell-check for you, too? No wonder you need an IDE.... * I see the morons around this list are as gullible to my posts as ever.... * Sun's Creator Studio rulez the inexpensive Java IDE world; JetBrain's IDEA rulez the $300+ IDEs. Eclipse isn't worth a shit. But REAL programmers prefer ed or vi. * Aside from the fact that Validator is a kluge, why ru developing for an obsolete browser? * Yes - use .NET or JSF; Struts is dead. * I have "no doubt" my boss is looking for a friggin' H-1B Indian faggot to replace me for 1/2 the rate. And I'm leaving for home in a few, so I'll be back on #funkycodemonkey in about a half an hour. Rick: did you send those nekid pics of your wife yet? James: when ru going to port struts to a Lisp framework? * I know you've missed me! When I signed off the list a couple of years ago (wow! that long???) I was doing an R&D PHP/MySQL/Linux gig with the Dept of State; for the past year I've been building C#.NET/SQL Server/IIS apps for the local county fire and rescue dept. Now, I'm at the Maryland State Board of Erec..., er, Elections doing system and application upgrades on a Python/PHP/phpWiki/PostgreSQL-Oracle/Linux portal (www.elections.state.md.us - horrendous, isn't it?). Covertly, I'm sticking Mono and Java frameworks in the rebuild, and since I haven't used Struts since 1.0, thought I'd lurk around and see what's going on. * Your sure did: C#.NET makes stuff like this soooooo easy! Struts is dead. * That would be the "Friggin' Ignorant Newbie Encyclopaedia?" * Your root problem is using Validator in the first place. (1) It is a bogus design from the start, and (2) it never has worked as advertised * huh? Me thinks you better be reading the J2EE spec first.... * Validator is crap...and always has been. If you look in the archive, you will see more complaints about Validator working over the past 3 years and any other 2 subjects combined. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
