Hello.. My e-mail was bouncing mails yesterday, so i'm replying to you using the list's archive as a source of data... [Alex] thank you for your nice work. If you will manage to get it going with postfix, then please provide me/us with some docs. [Ken] >> I've asked you in the past to provide documentation and a cdb version of the code. And I didn't really get >> back anything that I could use. Basicly just the code. I'm not going to get into a war with you over this. Please - this is just ridiculous!! Have you ever tried to read the patch's homepage? (http://members.elysium.pl/brush/vpopmail/) The nearly complete docs are there from the begining, describing API changes, new data structures and so on. Current information is distributed along with the patch in the distribution archive. Last time you asked for docs, i've replied that the docs are ALREADY in the package and id was you who never come back.. Morover: a) my patch is COMPLETELY independent of the cdb stuff. You can use the normal cdb stuff together with it. b) i do not recall your request for me to code this stuff for .cdb , and actualy i have not the desire to do so. The only thing to add to make it "compatible" with cdb is the vaddfucntion program that will eventualy creat the .qmail files instead of database objects. BUT THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE PATCH ITSELF, it's just a companion utility... c) from the begining , my patch is clearly separated from the other things and can be enabled/disabled via configure switch so again, including it wont break anything. >> It's another thing entirely to backward fit those features into the other authentication modules, provide >> documentation and test it all. That's what I have to do as the package maintainer. 1. my stuff does not collide with anything it ADDS features and does not change anything else 2. as soon as it'll be in the main distro - somobody that is interested in postgres or oracle support can port it to other auth module. 3. and i will repeat myself -> what you have done right now is just a: a) crippled version of my patch b) changed SUPPORT command to work with either mysql/cdb If you would spend a second looking at our latest patch, then you would notice that it was just a matter of adding few lines of code to our vaddfunction program to get you to the same point but with better functionality. So please - do us a favour and take a look at our patches and docs again (and try not to be biased) and if something is wrong then tell it here so we can discuss and fix it. Because right now you are just ignoring us, asking for things that has been already provided to you etc.... We want to do it for the good of community and not for our egos or something.. [TIM] >> Ken has to retrofit this to fit EVERYONE who is using vpopmail, not just those who fit your scenario >> Krzysztof, and though you have many people using your patches successfully I would assume that that is >> a very small portion of the installed userbase of vpopmail. As i said before - my patch adds CLEARLY SEPARATED functionality to vpopmail. If you do not enable it at compile time - you wont feel any difference. >> I also remember Ken publicly asking for documentation on how it works when you publicly complained in >> he last version of vpopmail when it wasn't included. I would assume Ken never received what he felt was >> needed to fit this properly into vpopmail and therefore developed perhaps a "feature-crippeled version" of >> your patch in order to provide a product to support the entire userbase of vpopmail Everything Ken asked for IS in the distro. And also on the webpage. Kris
