Um. Don't presume that someone is using proprietary software just
because they ask for a tag. That's a really horrible attitude in my mind.
Some of us have all e-mail come to our inbox for linear reading. I would
also like to see a tag added to the subject.
It's unfortunate that an open source project outright refuses a request
instead of attempting to work with it's members and reach a compromise.
The attitude of several posts so far have been rather condescending, and
as such I don't have high hopes for this project.
Hopefully more refined members of the project at the various corporate
sponsors will step in and set things right. I realize that many
engineers have substantial problems relating to ideas/approaches outside
their way of thinking, and as such often need handlers. Hopefully those
handlers will emerge here and get this project on the right track.
The suits do serve a purpose. :)
