Subject: [geeklog-modules] Support for Geeklog Developers
Message-ID: <20031009185503.M43087@pigstye.net>

I wanted to give my support to and express my appreciation for the Geeklog 
Developers.  The Security flap brought on by Lorenzo Hernandez Garcia-Hierro 
is both uncalled for done in a rude manner.  I guess he is just trying to 
make a name for himself, by showing his superiority.  At the very least he 
needs to take some lessons in manners and common courtesy.

I know that when I write software, a little of me goes into that software 
and when people criticize and complain it hurts.  It is a little easier to 
take when I am getting paid -- my customers have a right to expect my best 
effort.  But when I write open source software and donate my work and 
receive nothing but criticism because it does not do what someone else wants 
or work in the manner they like or does not have as much documentation as 
they want (cause their dummies -- oops let that one slip).  It makes me say 
why bother.  I will do what I want, screw everyone else.  But then my better 
half takes over and I continue.

I think Lorenzo Hernandez Garcia-Hierro has a lot of nerve, and no decency, 
to take Geeklog, use it, and criticize the developers for their lack of 
responding to his demands.  

Anyway Thanks Dirk, Tony, Blaine and Dwight for your work.  Do not let this 
jerk discourage you or make you feel bad, your work is appreciated.
