[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] 7/9: informations

[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] 7/9: informations

[Robert Schwebel]

INFORMATIONS
============

- There is no "informations" in the English language; correct plural
  form is "information". See your 7th grade English book if you don't 
  believe it :-)
- This patch definitely does not introduce new functionality.
- This patch results in a u-boot binary image which is reduced by one
  byte. Please remember adding this to my memory pool which I can use 
  the next time I'll add better documentation :-)

Please turn off fascist mode.

You should show a bit more tolerance to the people who contribute  to
this  Open  Source  project.  The developer who wrote this code (from
Italy, IIRC, so not a native English  speaker)  may  have  made  some
spelling   errors,  but  he  definitely  contributed  some  extremely
valuable code.

Please don't forget that you are standing on the shoulder  of  others
who did all the dirty work for you.



Added.

Quote from the Boss after overriding the decision of a task force  he
created  to  find  a  solution:  "I'm  sorry  if  I ever gave you the
impression your input would have any effect on my  decision  for  the
outcome of this project!"

There was a smily after this sentence, as it looked like a systematic
mistake. I won't comment your absolutely inacceptable accusation above.
