Re: Posting news on dot.kde.org only for chosen?

Look, I'm sorry we haven't written you back yet. You don't have to be a jerk about it.

The truth of the matter is that I (personally) haven't really investigated or decided what to do with your article yet, and I had others to process. Rob's submission came way before yours. I don't have an infinite amount of time on my hands, and nor do the rest of the *volunteer* moderators.

And yes, I'm glad freekde.org is coming back too. And no, I'm not jealous that you have an alternative.

No problem :)

>You don't have to be a jerk about it.<

Huh, it sounded like jerking? ;-) Sorry, english is not my native language, and it was not my intention to be either rude or unpolite.

>I don't have an infinite amount of time on my hands, and nor do the rest of the *volunteer* moderators.<

Understood.

>And no, I'm not jealous that you have an alternative.<

Nothing to be envious about. Dot.kde.org links to freekde.org. Remark about freekde.org was not meant serious. Just a joke. When I start Konqueror the first thing I see is dot.kde.org. The same will be in the future.

Regards,

Thanks, sorry for my reaction.

I'm at school, working on a hardish SSA problem in the library and just, as a break, popped by the terminal to see how the dot denizens were doing. Then I see this thread about "chosen ones" and wasn't exactly thrilled.

Thanks for the support.

You're running on Zope, aren't you? It's a pity that there isn't a Zope equivalent of 'scoop' (as run by www.kuro5hin.org), as that it baslly self running - the readers choose which of the submitted articles get posted.

Believe Navindra, guys. Navindra has been one of freekde's earliest supporters.

And everyone's support is appreciated. :-)
