Point being, just because something is hard to use doesn't mean it is
superior in *any* way to something which is easy to use.

Should have waited longer. Marek wasn't telling anyone to become his
personal code-bitch, and if you were truly apathetic to his plight
a simple "I don't care" would suffice.
Marek, I think you'll be surprised at how many "I don't care" + flame
responses you're going to get. I, for one, do care. I want to make
money writing libre software, so I'm all ears to your suggestions.
But remember that if you can't put up, you'll be well advised to shut
up 'round these parts.
OH, since likely nobody knows, I'm the guy that's writing Specimen.
