It has clearly no future in Gentoo anyway: http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/tur-users/2007-April/004644.html > The only way to keep absolute control over the product as delivered to > the user is to change the license and distribute Ion3 as binary-only. I am going to do that. And, in fact, after final Ion3 is released, I'm not going to write a line of so-called "free software"; so poor has been the treatment of the FOSS herd (both of my code, and of the good old *nix), that I'm not going to do them any services any more. This post provides a very good reasoning so I'll just link it: http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/tur-users/2007-April/004653.html P.S. And, please forget the 'but we only distribute ebuild, not the package' line. The guy is seriously paranoid, annoying and crazy. Next time he's apparently gonna claim that portage is a derivative work of Ion= 3. http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/tur-users/2007-April/004663.html http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/tur-users/2007-April/004659.html I'm not interested in his personal crusade against font handling on Linux, nor are most of users. No place for such frenzy in Gentoo - not worth the trouble, and noone should encourage such attitude, more importantly. FOSS shit has been on a constant downward slide ever since I started using it back in '95-'96, especially after all sorts of world domination plans, like Gnome, were announced. Windows, OTOH, has improved, although Vista has a small degradation again: you also can't easily disable the blurry fonts completely, just like Linux that requires writing loads of XML shit to do so. Maybe they've employed a few representative specimens of the FOSS herd -- a bunch of teenagers wanking to buzzwords, instead of pr0n. No wonder they can't tell a blurry font from a crisp one. Once again, I don't want to use any software produced by such abusive moron, and other people should do the same - or they should help them themselves and compile the only original, trademarked Ion3 (C)(TM) manual= ly. *annoyed* --=20 Best regards, Jakub Moc mailto:jakub@gentoo.org GPG signature: http://subkeys.pgp.net:11371/pks/lookup?op=3Dget&search=3D0xCEBA3D9E Primary key fingerprint: D2D7 933C 9BA1 C95B 2C95 B30F 8717 D5FD CEBA 3= D9E ... still no signature ;) --------------enig2135EDEDF7CD02310F82FB4C Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGRtfjhxfV/c66PZ4RA+VVAKCv7tNlMQxZBA1/Zj3A3kPDU4RzoACfbOMY 6gXFIT0UzO4ei1Mxh3nVCNQ= =nG15 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig2135EDEDF7CD02310F82FB4C-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
