Not six months ago. I think that is why a few of us here are having a hard time even recalling it being posted here. I mean, if I write a document about, I don't know, creating Gimp brushes, and some community somewhere picks up on it, let's say a brushes group on deviant art, and discusses it, that is great. But if I'm not participating directly in that community or even are aware that community is using my document am I really a part of that deviant art brush group? I would think not. But this is a really silly point to argue. So let's talk about your analysis of the document rather than who posted it where and when. I would love to hear more about your takeaways from creating it. ~m _______________________________________________ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
