| Somehow this is funny. There is a feature request database, people are
| allowed to vote, and when one advertises this (cool!) feature and
| people do actually vote (and i expect the members of the mailing lists
| to be smart enough to know whether they want to vote for this or for
| other features) and then there's this response...

I guess the feature request database was intended to only be available to
the privileged few, Anton.  (And EVEN publicizing it on M-L and other lists
STILL keeps it within the few...  It is presumed that anybody who is anybody
will be on these lists, but that isn't the case.)

So the ballot box was ALREADY stuffed, by limiting access to it.  Same
problem as doing "market research" by way of focus groups, it just does NOT
tell much about the ACTUAL market.

Cheers to all y'all...!...:-D

"And i don't like pressing "verify" on every line."  Yeah, Don, I see what
ya mean.  UI design by committee, and the *nix folks won, is my guess...
(My understanding is that Code is a dead product and wonder..) This WDSc is
a step forward or two steps backwards (or both)??  Sheesh...
