Re: New unofficial document - oamp.pdf

This is another long post with *details* of what I am trying
to communicate.

Just shut up already, we don't care anymore. I won't make the same
mistake of reading your pointless ranting again. I like the way things
are now and wouldn't change them. If you don't like the way things are
here, go somewhere else. No, you don't need another long post
detailing what you "want to say". If you were so good at writing
documentation,  you would need a short paragraph describing what you
want. Because you require 20 pages of detailed explanation, it's
obvious you aren't skilled enough as a writer to write FAQ
documentation and such. If that irks you so bad, write some
documentation and prove me wrong. I think it would be better for you
to just take your bitching somewhere else. Do the world a favor and go
back to Windows, where you don't have --any-- say in what goes on.
