Reinhard,

I felt extemely bothered by what Eduard wrote, exactly Eduard!

Let me summarize my point for you.

For a long time now I can observe your debates with people who are trying to nag
you. To me it seems that you are one of those who are trying to give more than
normal people could accept. You not only create tools and programs but you want
also that people understand your motivations and thoughts behind your creations.

One must admit that this only leads to patronizing processes or blind hatred.
It's as if users couldn't just enjoy creativity but must tear down inventors
down to their own low level. Instead of showing a minimum of admiration the
naked user is a "Raubtier= wild animal" who can't spend his time for such
petitesses like thankfullness. Because that would be misunderstand as guilt.

I can only confirm you, that your presentation is one that will last many years
longer than the little Scharmützel of your (ab)users. The ones who understand
your attempts admire you for your sincerity and seriousness.

Please continue this way and let yourself not be taken on side roads.


All the best to you,

Rolf
