Comments on: What a nice group http://archlinux.me/dickturpin/2009/08/12/what-a-nice-group/ Just another Arch Linux Blog site Sun, 29 Aug 2010 18:20:57 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 By: dick_turpin http://archlinux.me/dickturpin/2009/08/12/what-a-nice-group/#comment-12 dick_turpin Thu, 13 Aug 2009 07:56:34 +0000 http://archlinux.me/dick_turpin/?p=121#comment-12 I’m not sure where there is any harshness in the post? other than towards those who make people feel unwelcome on mailing lists, forums and IRC channels. For those situations I make no apologies at all and will not accept arrogant attitudes.

As for glowing, yes I am a bit. Rather than feeling shamed you should feel proud, you did a good thing and made another person happy :-)

Here is the Dev who talked to dick_turpin.
Some people said that this post is a lil bit “harsh”, so i wanted to write a statement, and make sure that it isn’t?

To your Surprise: You don’t have to be able to code anything, because we “just” port Arch Linux(We, as archmobile.org do not program any applications). The main thing we are doing is making Packages, which isn’t that hard really, configuring and testing.
And creating a PKGBUILD is like running ./configure make make install, just automated.

This Post sounds to me like you are totally glowing, i already feel a bit shamed because of all this laud.

Greetings, naeg

If you only need to build packages then AUR experience is enough and if you start to like it you will learn coding and dig into it :)
