  1. What this installer doesnt do. on KDE Installer Project · · Score: 3
    Hello everyone. Okay, lets get this settled:

    * This installer doesnt manage any packages. I dont know where you guys got that from, its false.

    * This installer doesnt replace all the Debian users' little pet apt. If you are using Debian, please dont mention that all you need to do is a "apt-get blah blah blah". WE KNOW. And if your asking yourself "Why not just use Debian" its because apt doesnt have a cool installer like the KDE Installer, and its not as friendly as Mandrake and others (dont pick at that please).

    * This installer wont be a wrapper for redcarpet. End of story. Too much work and planning has already been done to just turn around and change ideas.

    * If your not a newbie, or you dont like this idea, please dont talk about it (You know who I'm talking to). It seems no matter how many times I visit slashdot, at least 65% of your comments are put-downs.

    I'm sorry if I seemed mad the last comment, my temper with flamers only goes so far.

    Thanks, Nick Betcher

    P.S. Topics like 'flamebait' are getting old. If its humor, its old :) Also, this article isnt written in anger.

  2. Issues I need to discuss on KDE Installer Project · · Score: 1

    Hello everyone. I appreciate the /. lag. My friend suggested I dialup, but it hasnt gotten that bad. I wonder sometimes why commercial sites can handle this load, yet my DSL can :)

    Anyways... someone suggested that I could just make a wrapper for redcarpet, but I thought about it and a re-write from the ground up.

    Ohh, two more things:

    * If you want to be heard, please discuss it on my forum at: http://www.rox0rs.net/forums. I dont like the way slashdot lays out the posts

    * IF YOU DONT LIKE MY IDEA OR PROGRAM ITSELF GO AWAY! I only want constructive critism. All lamers flaming me will be ignored and no brain power will be put into reading your lame @#$ comments
