Like the original poster wrote, it's inspired by yet another rambling, rant= ing=20 and entirely incoherent editorial from the web's no.1 address for incoheren= t=20 rants, osnews.com. FWIW, that editorial makes no hints at some=20 pay-for-features model like Maurizio has in mind. Instead it contains this: "It's the project itself that needs to do the right moves to reach its=20 audience and take a pick on their problems, not the other way around. For=20 example, Apple has a very simple feedback page on their web site that doesn= 't=20 require registering (as opposed to bugzilla which is very technical and=20 requires extra thinking) where "normal" users can send, well, feedback. App= le=20 developers use Apple's bug reporting page on their developer's sub-site, bu= t=20 plain users just have a form with few straight-forward fields to write down= =20 their gripes." Well, if people like Eugenia feel better because there's a form on a websit= e=20 whose contents go more or less straight to the bitbucket (Microsoft has a=20 similar facility somewhere, I stumbled over it once), that's something that= =20 can be implemented very quickly. And if the obvious uselessness of such a=20 facility offends you, think of it as promotional - as others keep pointing= =20 out, we do need more promotion anyways. =2D-=20 ,_, | Michael Nottebrock | lofi@freebsd.org (/^ ^\) | FreeBSD - The Power to Serve | http://www.freebsd.org \u/ | K Desktop Environment on FreeBSD | http://freebsd.kde.org --nextPart3967639.cCE07anHIg Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBCMuDQXhc68WspdLARApQHAKCCEwvjkx/ZpQTJ5leA1nlUT4Q0PQCfYIY1 4rVMrq31kN4FtxJLzhpYzGI= =j4tE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart3967639.cCE07anHIg-- --===============0488195029== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline >> Visit http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-devel#unsub to unsubscribe << --===============0488195029==--
