Sorry, this wasn't always the case and I don't know when it changed for you. If there are problems with maintaining the speed of the development I would have expected that somebody told me. For the changes in question it would have been possible to do the work even without Hurd compilation possibilities. > (So this is the first xmas season in recent memory that I haven't > been huddled over my machine hacking GNU crapola the whole time > anyway, but at least give me the benefit of the doubt for maybe > having a social life once in a while.) I don't know why you feel attaked personally. Nobody demands that you do the work all by yourself. But I will also not allow that the slow Hurd development is slowing down the development on Linux as well. It is no problem to be behind, just let your users know about this. When I make a release I can easily say that this is not for Hurd. Maybe this would even lead to people offering to help. -- ---------------. drepper at gnu.org ,-. 1325 Chesapeake Terrace Ulrich Drepper \ ,-------------------' \ Sunnyvale, CA 94089 USA Cygnus Solutions `--' drepper at cygnus.com `------------------------
