You may notice as some others are doing little by little steps: - source cleanups; - right dependancy; - headers includes; - warnings elimination; - code reading-analyzing (brainwashing, as for me;) and a few line fixes everywhere. I think there are members here, who doing things, like that for at least two years. You are trying to focus (mostly) on style and sense -- ok. And maybe it's like to be alone within a crowd. Anyways, as long as you fill, that you can do that, and patches are accepded, changes are *documented* its ok, also. Sometimes it's stupid, worthless or something else. If so, then find more interesting things to do, unless you are going to proof something to somebody ;E. Here's, as i can see, almost no place for emotions, only technical stuff and everything not far from it. See, there isn't any reply on you message, except this one. I think, because of that. -- -o--=O`C #oo'L O <___=E M
