Smeghead,
First, I'm not new to SME as an end-user, but I've also not participated in the forums here at Contribs or on SF, which I think more people should do.
Second, I'm very excited about the move to Centos and I want to assist Gordon, Charlie, RequestedDeletion, Greg, and other developers in working through bugs as they make the transition. As such I've joined the smeserver-developers mailing list, I monitor the SF forums, and have spent a significant amount of time looking at the bugtracker to see if I can help.
I know that these guys are overloaded and I'd like to help in any way I can.
That being said, my reasons for wanting to help are somewhat selfish; I run my own business and package, rebrand, and customize open source projects to sell to clients with support contracts. SMEServer has been a great project in this regard.
However, I'll again emphasize that I have no desire to see my 'name up in lights'. I still don't understand the impetus behind that statement, but I've said what I have to say and I see no purpose in addressing it further.
Lastly, I'm college educated and English is my native tongue, so I'm not sure what you're implying.
But, on to more important things... as far as I'm concerned this issue is serving no purpose.
Smeghead, have you done any testing of 7.0a16?
Regards,
E
