Seriously though, noone's in a blanket defense of using the word nigger. We're in defense of not taking it upon ourselfves to remove genres from a list of a standard which *noone* outside a few of you have voiced any concern about. The genre is apparently a perfectly valid Dutch word - I suspect there was a dutchman at Nullsoft who added this thing, simple as that. You're the one putting negative meaning into this word where there is none. I suggest you go and fight some real problems instead of making ones up. Yes, you are overreacting, and I suggest you make changes where they are needed. Your talk about importance amuses me. This has got to be the most irrelevant case of "PC racism" ever. Now stop posting this nonsense and let us all get on with our lives. -- Jonas H rasher(at)rasher(dot)dk -- Random .sigs suck _______________________________________________ http://cool.haxx.se/mailman/listinfo/rockboxReceived on 2005-09-09 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
