That doesn't exactly qualify as "discussing Rockbox support" either, I think,
and yet there are people on this list who are appreciative of the discussion
and your contribution to it.

I've never quite understood why this list seems to be so aggressively against
discussions on related topics of interest to Rockbox users, even if they're
not directly "Rockbox questions or answers" - I think the whole place could
be so much more friendly if people weren't jumped on for voluntarily
providing information likely to be of benefit to a significant proportion of
the list subscribers.

Oh, and for my Rockbox question in this posting to the list, how should I
submit feature requests now that the tracker for these appears to have
disappeared?


Thanks,


Antony.
