I've no problem with my conversations in this thread. In opposite, I'm
glade that I could fix some issues and bugs in my source. The hints I
receive from Fons helps me to do that. That is a lot more then we
receive from some other guitarix users, even if they use guitarix
regular on stage to generate there income (or a part of it).
Also Faust will profit at least.
Reducing this thread on some namings, or flames, is the wrong way. Just
read between the lines and fetch what is useful.
Personally, I didn't think that OpenSource is a thankless ideal, it's a
lot of fun to work in Open Groups on the same source base. You just have
to keep in mind that it isn't a (children) Rose-garden, this rose-garden
here, have spikes.
