You walked in with a lot more anger, and pointed it at a VOLUNTEER PROJECT that produces FREE SOFTWARE. You attributed profit motivations to them like they're some kind corporate landlords out to capture the "market".
The other person commented with info that shows KDE does not have the goals you suspected.
My comment explained why you were insane to have suspicions in the first place.
KDE is not a company, and doesn't have profit incentives. I'm sorry if I corrected you on that a little too vehemently, but that doesn't invalidate the point.
Or even my heated tone in response to your heated post.
Volunteer projects, have volunteers. Not project managers you can punish by "assigning" them to do stuff they have no interest in.
@MentalEdge I had no anger, only worries and a need for a discussion or clarification. I would however clarify that I am selective about who I talk to or take crap from. So please rest assured that it is entirely personal when I block you.
Sure.
Saying people would end up "cowering in fear" and telling KDE to reassign the person who came up with making their own distro to kcalc was entirely pragmatic on your part.
