Do I have some sticker stating "I am stuuuupid" on my shirt?
Seems so.

Are my sentences too long and therefore difficult to understand?

Really?
Wow.
I'm disappointed, you wrote me such a trivial "hint".

I therefore posted a copy to the Xorg-ML back then:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2006-June/016304.html

I did the same with XFree86 - no reaction either:
http://www.mail-archive.com/devel%40xfree86.org/msg07818.html

All that happened some days ago, on 20060625.

Where and what I did start with, was above link, yet another time:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2006-June/016304.html

By reading the Xorg ML?
Again, 
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2006-June/016304.html

And I repeated those technical aspects on the same Xorg ML today, just in case somebody has overlooked it last Monday.

Alan Cox called me someone, not being "seriously involved into the Xorg project".
He did a mistake that early.
I wanted to let people know, what I'm exactly working on.
I therefore sent links.
Shall I reference them?

I was new to the list and wanted readers to know, what I'm specialized in, what I'm working on.
Wrong?

Didn't I apologize for the MS-DOS crap one full day ago?!
Further, I not only didn't initiate that unglorious MScoders_Magazine "thread", but I was also telling that initial OP, that he was completely wrong place / wrong audience here.
Some people even flamed me for that, afterwards: "Do not be impolite to that poor MScoder guy. He may have a bad impression of Xorg now." Something like that.
Others seem to flame me because they apparently think, I myself had been that troll starting the MScoders thing.

Seems, nobody has - or takes - the time, to properly read the e-mails he gets, at least not down to the bottom.


Martin Bochnig
p.s.: Sorry you got many e-mails twice.
But I never knew, if they would ever reach the ML, and I therefore decided to CC them to you, what I not do otherwise.
