I'm sitting here chuckling to myself a little bit because I saw that clause, and I actually thought to myself, "Yeah, I can understand why someone might want to keep Java code out of a nuclear facility. <sarcasm>Mmmmm... Java code and nuclear power plants. Two tastes that go great together.</sarcasm>" I can also understand now why this might be a bad thing from Fedora's point of view. Thanks for the pointer on FileNameExtensionFilter. I'll see what I can do with that for now. I'll also have to keep that "no nukes" clause in mind as well. ;-) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
