Bug 219 and some bugzilla in general.

[Vitaliy Margolen]

Is it just me or did anyone else have a feeling that our bugilla turned into
some kind of forum by selected individuals? I understand all the excitement from
this new shiny ntoskrnl, but what _exactly_ does it have to do with safedisk
in general? And what all the "other" apps this person claims that ntoskrnl
is too limited to support? What's that have to do with bug 219?!

Please if you post information to bugzilla, discuss the bug related matters
*only*. All general stuff should go here! And unless you have any useful
information to provide that will help the resolution of the bug, don't!

And the reason this bug is still the only bug open for safedisk, is because
Wine still a long way away from running _any_ safedisk protected game (of course
I'm talking about 1.2+ versions that do have kernel driver).


I'm sorry, but please can we use things in the way they were meant to be used?
