If "doing 90% of the work and then refusing to release the code because he never quite finishes any fucking project and is embarrased by his code" qualifies, then yes, it is vaporware. This guy has a history of doing exactly this, and it is extremely frustrating. Also, he absolutely refuses to provide the patch if you ask him directly. > http://www.tal.org/~milang/o2/ >=20 > Got to this site.

I'll keep poking at it. No, it won't. If there isn't a patch on onion's site, then there isn't a patch anywhere (unless by chance somebody else independently wrote a patch and then never bothered to announce it to the linux-mips community). -Steve --Sig_7WfkHL.HN1lvqnKrKmh6ypn Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFzyfDHyvOE7OTyFYRAm43AJ49W3FTRUdCPIrQkcVRPiJnrJjdpQCfUXkT tsZpv6vcz0uOq6Y6a4ravF8= =z8/H -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_7WfkHL.HN1lvqnKrKmh6ypn-- -- gentoo-mips@gentoo.org mailing list
