It sounds like "accept what you are given"\, is that what you mean?<br><br>I keep seeing new features added without anyone in this email list requesting them\, while there have been plenty of requests and sugges tions made to this email list and they seem to largely go ignored\, or get lost with obscure largely non progressive responses. I would even say defen sive - which is not a good sign at all!<br><br>Many of the features Wayne a nd you have introduced are pretty good though\, but it is a concern that th ey are introduced without any evident consultation with the "community" whi le the "community" requests seem to go by without even a trial! Yes\, I con sider myself in that community...<br><br>Brent is the only person who has r eplied to my concerns about the RSS problem. He has replied twice with prac tical suggestions. One was to contact the extension author and see if he ca n fix it. I did\, and no reply from the author. The next response from Bren t was for the administrator to update the RSS extension and see if that fix es the problem. This strikes me as a reasonably simple step (compared to LT and Kaltura efforts)\, but as yet the suggestion has had no response from an administrator\, but a surprise release of Kaltura did get announced... I think action on the RSS issue is over due.<br><br>I have pushed the RSS up date request to the point of nagging\, but no response or action from the a dministrator leads to second guessing!<br><br>I too hope this community (or I) do not begin second guessing WE\, as a hell of a lot has been invested in it this end. But I'm getting a strong sense of "take what you are given" \, and a centralised administration with an agenda that is neither document ed or discussed in this forum.<br><br>A working RSS is an essential feature in this day and age. At least as important as the primary features of the MediaWiki as it is out of the box. But I'm nagging again. I hate having to nag\, but some response that shows consideration made to the suggestions ma de by Brent would be great. Or perhaps administration powers shared for the purpose of fixing this problem. Or\, some constructive response!<br><br>So rry if it seems that I am escalating this\, its just that I am alarmed by y our last message Eric\,<br><br>Regards\,<br>Leigh<br><br><div class="gmail_ quote">On Jan 11\, 2008 2:56 PM\, Erik Moeller <\;[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\ ; wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid r gb(204\, 204\, 204)\; margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex\; padding-left: 1ex\;"><div class="Ih2E3d"><br>On 1/10/08\, Leigh Blackall <\;<a href="mailto:leighb [EMAIL PROTECTED]">[EMAIL PROTECTED]</a>>\; wrote:<br>>\; It was clashing with Liquid Threads right?
