Linus Torvalds ataca de novo o GNOME



Há uns tempos atrás, Linus declarou que \\'Os desenvolvedores do GNOME são mentalmente atrasados e que todos os utilizadores de Linux devem mudar para KDE\\'.

O mais recente ataque envolve a submissão de pacthes para o GNOME que supostamente o farão \\'comportar-se\\' tal como Linus deseja.

O ataque completo fica aqui:

   

I\\'ve sent out patches. The code is actually _cleaner_ after my patches, and the end result is more capable. We\\'ll see what happens.

    THAT is constructive.

    What I find unconstructive is how the GNOME people always make *excuses*. It took me a few hours to actually do the patches. It wasn\\'t that hard. So why didn\\'t I do it years ago?

    I\\'ll tell you why: because GNOME apologists don\\'t say "please send us patches". No. They basically make it clear that they aren\\'t even *interested* in fixing things, because their dear old Mum isn\\'t interested in the feature.

    Do you think that\\'s "constructive"?

    So let\\'s see what happens to my patches. I guarantee you that they actually improve the code (not just add a feature). I also guarantee that they actually make things *more* logical rather than less (with my patches, double-clicking on the title bar isn\\'t a special event: it\\'s configurable along with right- and middle-clicking, and with the exact same syntax for all).

    But why, oh, why, have GNOME people not just said "please fix it then"?

    Instead, I _still_ (now after I sent out the patch) hear more of your kvetching about how you actually do everything right, and it\\'s somehow *my* fault that I find things limiting.

    Here\\'s a damn big clue: the reason I find GNOME limiting is BECAUSE IT IS.

    Now the question is, will people take the patches, or will they keep their heads up their arses and claim that configurability is bad, even when it makes things more logical, and code more readable.

Esse gajo devia era cortar a barba e deixar de beber  :evil:

Até mete nojo sempre a atacar o GNOME, sempre a atacar tudo o que é contra o que ele acha bom. Houve alguns ditadores que foram assim...
