I think you and others fail to understand is that we too are very busy as well and given your responce I see now how this game is played I guess you are the only one who's allowed to be busy.... > > When you have a very invasive feature that requires the entire world > to change and brings no domain specific advantages to users of > impacted subsystems, you should not be surprised that you see > resistance (what new capability does NFS get from the systemd changes > for example!). > Seriously am I supposed to play that dance yet again the merits over the legacy sysv init system as been explained to death more then once. Converting the nfs legacy sysv init script to native systemd one is not a technical problem nor requires any code changes to the nfs code base it's a human one and there is no point for me trying to explain things to an indvidual that is not willing to listen that is just a waste of my time which is better spent with people that actually are willing to listen, learn adapt and move on. And it's just going to make my day that if the only component that requires absolutely no code changes is going to block the alpha release because the maintainer refused to get with the program and make the changes like everyone else all because he did not want to inconvenient the little sysadmin. > That is where you need to use charm and persuasion to move things > along :) Encase you have not noticed thou I'm pretty sure everyone else has, the score on charisma on my character sheet is relatively low and given that I'm not a lucky man especially with dices then it should be pretty obvious that I wont be charming anyone... ;) JBG -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
