[maemo-developers] Deleting Project PyGTKEditor from Garage

[From: Benoît HERVIER]

Why are you saying that i m trying to divide the Maemo Community ?

So Maemo is as closed as Apple iThings  Store ?
We can t provide apps without the approbation of the community ?

Uploading things to extras is a pain ... rules changes ... stupid
votes ... bug in the interfaces that noone take care... fixing a bug
for a package in extras could takes several weeks due to the QA
Testing process ...

I cannot say to user to set extras-devel repository ... there is too
much package that can brick n900 device ... HAM ignore apps that are
in other repository if they are already in extras !!! So what ?

I m a hobbist developers, i m doing it for free ... and today it s
take more time to trying to make packages available in extras than
creating new apps and implementing new feature !!! Why ... you should
try to found user to test your apps, answer to wrong vote, wait bugs
to be fixed in the web interface, and more !

So creating my own repository is the best compromise ... Today i ve
already delete my garage account as x-fade is now sure that i ll not
publish anything more on extras repository ... what you want ? if you
are not happy with that do not use my repository ... BUT STOP WHINNING
!

But i got so many complain about creating my repository that now you
win ... you know what ? Today i m writing code to create packaged
python apps for android, and i ll probably stop all my maemo
development ! I know that this n900 will made many damage to the
community ... but i was optimist ... i was thinking more users, better
for the plateforms ... failed

Yes there is discussions, talk, brainstorm ... and other discussions,
emails on the mailing list but ZERO actions taken. This was my first
experience in an true OSS community ... but probably the last.

FELICITATIONS you loose an other dev ! Your so closed mind IS DIVIDING
the community !
