    The worst terrorist attack in recorded history is taking place in Afghanistan as we speak, and you people are discussing the fact that Mozillaquest.com has an article about Patch Maker which is a new Perl script that let's you hack the Mozilla UI using JS, CSS, and XUL and how you do not have to download or compile the source code or pull CVS????? My *god*, people GET SOME PRIORITIES!

    The countless thousands of innocent people that will die at the hands of American murderers could give a good damn about Mozilla, your perl scripts, your childish Lego models, your nerf toys and lack of a "fun" workplace, your Everquest/Diablo/D&D addiction, or any of the other ways you are trying to ignore the murder.

    exibit A:
    The impetus for creating Patch Maker seems to lie in the fact that Mozilla bugs are raging out of control.

    Mozquest is a load of shit, wht's this guy's motivation with giving bad information about the Mozilla project? is it personal? is there some kind of corporate interest involved? Patchmaker is a great project and should make things easier for developing Mozilla UI. how abolut this link to the project itself:

    patchmaker page
    or the discussion on mozilla zine site

    Consider linking instead to mozillazine.com instead, which has discussed this in great depth as well, and is not simply a site for trolls. And what is wrong with the idiot moderators moderating this point down? I suspect a majority of them have no clue what they are moderating and moderate on tone alone. pathetic.

    Arg, stop kidding yourselves. Mozilla runs fast on 350MHz, which is what I have. Other browsers doens't seem any faster than Mozilla, if at all.

    My mailer gives "host name lookup failure" but that's probably this end. The links? that's your end. :-)
