Undoubtedly some of these have been addressed in current SVN. Most users interested in using GNUstep won't see this as the functionality is not in our current packages for Windows.
We are losing potential manpower by discouraging prospective users due to the poor experience we are giving them on Windows. This is not just due to the Windows theme but it is due to a number of factors.
I think that’s what Riccardo was saying, and while I can see how you might think his response was insulting to your effort, please consider that;
a. he’s frustrated by the fact that, over the years, he’s repeatedly been told that his work is not good enough, by people who aren’t actually contributing code improvements themselves
b. your response to a (possibly misinterpreted/imagined) insult was to be extremely, disproportionately insulting (at least we are left in no doubt about whether you intended to be insulting or not)
I did not want to insult, I just wanted to be a little harsh about the methods and contents, feeling a little offended by the video. I ask forgiveness and hope that made my position clearer.. While with Thom there were no doubts about his intentions in his latter mail.
I think it's unfair to color his intentions in writing the original email based on his earlier response. I believe his intentions are good and should be taken as such. The issues in his video need to be addressed.
Riccardo
