Oh, come on... It's good enough, you just don't understand them :P
It's well-known fact that OpenBSD is a system by developers _mostly for_ developers.
In my personal practice for the past 5 years I've been facing lot of problems (sometimes wasn't good in theory well, sometimes didn't know the answer to a specific question, sometimes needed a question for myself to go further on a problem to solve it, research more about it, etc.) and all these times they have been pretty helpful and smart.
But yes, if you don't give enough info about your problem, aren't interested in solution and so on, the community will not help you most of the times, and better make fun of you, especially on IRC. We respect noobs, but we don't respect stupid noobs with a questions like "Please fix me X for Y, but I don't wanna do anything" expressing theirs lazyness and irresponsibility.
OpenBSD community reminds me russian Mazda RX-8 community, they act the same :)
So let's just not call the people "jerks" just because they're busy too and don't want to waste time on a solution of your problem not interested to yourself.
And yes, I'd use every bit for its purpose. I used OpenBSD as a desktop OS for 2 years in the past. I can't say it's unusable but it's not so "shiny" as Linux-based systems are for multimedia (and some exotic stuff in this sphere). I'm talking about flash too, programs like Ardour, wine, inkscape (it wasn't available in 2006), etc.
So routers and firewalls are the best places for OpenBSD in my opinion. Guys try to create an open analogue of IOS and are good at it.
So let's esteem others' work and use it where it's really needed. |

>You might say I'm petty about such "small" things
nah, it's a thing where the "size" doesn't matter ;^)
b) removed the .xcf files from your tarball, which are indeed the "sources" if you will
well, no.. personally for me the sources are only(!) xpm (unlike, for example png) files (have you ever tried to open them with a text editor?), but of course not GIMP xcf files. So I repeat: I didn't remove, but didn't include them for unneedness
>I was not out to insult anyone, I just wanted to put things right.
no, no, everything's ok! |

I'll start with the end.
>p.s: Even the changes to the menu look like adapted from this style
Not really, I don't know about this style and even never downloaded the tarball you pointed the link at.
>but I cannot stand people who break my idea of "open work".
this is my fault, I fixed the license. Really sorry for this (prolly cause I share everything I have with BSD/ISC license and have just forgotten about it, cause it's been long time since I modified it)
>Do not pretend you made it in February 2006 since the style was released on the end of June 2006.
this is just a theme config file, I made it in Feb'06 (see below)
>you took my style, removed all the important source files, added some changes to the menu and released it under your name.
look, if you see the desc -- it says "My fluxbox theme going and improving since 2004."
That means that I started my own "theme" in 2004. I took some graphic files, combined them and edited a bit. I didn't "remove" anything from your theme. Again. I just took the images I liked and adopted for my config file.
Thanks an sorry for incomprehension. |
