Playing stupid is what you like most, right? What do you think "coral"
is? It "evolved" from "coryl" ...

No. I am tired of repeating myself and others.

Everyone but the users. They said a billion times that they don't care
at all - why should people who don't care about something make a
decision about it?

I can very well bitch around while telling the truth. Bitching around
doesn't make me automatically wrong ...

Because I am still concerned about what happens to compiz (obviously
much more than most others). The new project is said to be a "combined"
project ... but in fact it is everything from beryl modified to work on
top of compiz-core. So why don't you just call it beryl 2.0 ??? It would
fit best ...

Once again - being constructive does not mean accepting any
bullshit-idea for the "greater good". Yes-sayers are not constructive,
they are just afraid of telling their real opinion ...

And one small question: How can it be constructive to "just shut up" and
watch everything getting worse and worse? That's quite paradox ...

Whenever I try to be somehow constructive you start complaining and
bitching about what I say - is that your way of being constructive?

Kristian said it - but of course he is "only a complainer" and doesn't
reflect the majority of yes-sayers around here, right? Even though he is
the only "ex-beryl"-person I can agree with (sometimes) ...

No, the naked (yet unfriendly) truth :P ... I am not the type of guy who
tries to be polite only to get more people to agree with me.

Well - you know what my name is, don't you? Most people call me RYX
anyway. Did I appear like giving a shit about being polite in this mail?
