--- Comment #151 from Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton <lkcl at lkcl.net> ---
hi dan,

i had time, back when i was working on this.  if i had received
encouraging responses from jiullard instead of one-sentence
"you're a dick, fuck off" style responses then i would have
worked hard - at the time - to come up with a solution.

so jiullard needs to learn - and everyone else needs to
understand - that he is *not* good at what he does.

if i was paid to work on wine, then *regardless* of my
personal opinion of an individual's nature if they showed
the slightest inclination and enthusiasm to help out on
such a complex project i would not hesitate to encourage
them to do so, dealing with anything where they stepped
out of line as a separate issue.

we know that NamedPipes is a highly complex area that should
have been tackled a decade ago.  there are very few
people in the world who a) understand low-level NT
b) understand low-level POSIX/Unix.

so i am simply not prepared to put up with shit - for no
money - in such a complex technical area.

discouraging people from contributing is massively
counterproductive.

get him to publicly apologise and i might consider
helping out again.

but otherwise? why should i bother? i have enough to do
without having to put up with his attitude.

so, sorry dan - no dice.
