Since you won't be reading this, I offer this information for the benefit of other list subscribers: A wiki page exists called MajorChanges. It contains an attempt at a user-understandable list of new features, significant bug fixes, and improvements. It even has an RSS feed, and is an excellent way to keep track of what new features are going in. With this list, as with elsewhere, we expect you to have read the appropriate documentation (Manual for questions about how to enable features, wiki for various other questions, etc) before asking on here, so please do. > > Mr. Louden - please don't answer any further queries from me in the > future.

At no point is /anyone/ obligated to answer all questions in a statement. You posted about a bug, and I asked you for more information about it. No user should ever, ever complain about someone not answering their questions, as you did. I'm not obligated to spend my time typing responses to your questions when the answers are already publicly available. Instead, I asked questions I felt would most benefit the Rockbox project, that is trying to find out more about the bug and get information about it put in the right place. > As for your last statement - "If I'm asking you for a bug report..." - > I asked you a question, you in turn took it upon yourself to withhold > information and requested further information from me in an accusatory > manner. I took it upon myself to ask for a proper bug report. At no point am I obligated to answer your questions, and the information was available publicly so nothing was withheld. > Mr. Louden - please don't restate your opinion of this dialog, my > email filters are being set accordingly.

This list is for technical issues and user support, not a social list. If you have problems with it, they're welcome (though bugs should, as always, be reported in the right place) but we don't need dozens of emails of people just saying "I'm glad album art finally scales." ------------------------------------------------------------------- List admin: http://cool.haxx.se/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rockbox FAQ: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GeneralFAQ Etiquette: http://www.rockbox.org/mail/etiquette.html Received on 2008-12-12 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
