 this should give you an indication of the complexity of the process involved
in the development of this work.

 it should also show you the lengths to which i was prepared to go to educate
people on request.

 much also of the comments show my shock and confusion at being both personally
insulted by respected members of free software communities, and at the way in
which the advancement of free software's strategic reach is being jeapordised
by bloody-mindedness.

 it should also indicate the respect that i have for people who are patient
enough to provide valuable technical input, even in the face of an increasingly
stressful process, and even whilst at the same time teaching them (with
unfortunately very harsh lessons) to be a tiny bit more cooperative and
collaborative in the _strategic_ development and direction of webkit.

 couple of things:

 1) does the above paragraph contribute to the project or does it aggravate it?
 i would say that it both aggravates the project and also once again borders on
personal insult instead of adding technical or strategic value.

 please can i respectfully request that you refrain from making comments that
aggrave the project.

 please refrain from making comments that border on personal insult.

 2) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correlation_does_not_imply_causation

 correlation does not imply causation.  that there exists 200 comments does not
imply the insulting conclusion that you deduce.

 please refrain from wasting people's time with unfounded personal accusations
and zero technical or strategic merit.

> standard features that you so crave) to get it reviewed and committed?

 1) pay me money, and i'll do exactly as you wish.

 2) if you don't pay me money, fee free to contribute to the project rather
than aggravate it.

 3) why don't _you_ split out the controversial bits of the patch that you
claim that i crave.

 4) please refrain from making personal insults

 5) please read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egoless_programming

 6) please refrain from making assumptions that there are personal issues
involved in the development of this work.  you know _nothing_ about me, my
goals or my vocation.



> Compared to the current strategy of throwing yourself to the ground and kicking

 again - as yourself this question: "does the above paragraph contribute to the
project or does it aggravate the project?"

 please refrain from making statements that aggravate the project.


 can i ask the maintainers of this bugtracker if they could please delete #205
(and also this message) from the bugtracker: #205 contributes no value to patch
#16401.
