Re: why creating "teams", "cores" and "groups" won't work this time, either

My company has currently hacked nearly every Package we use, we have multiple extensions for quickforms, templates, paging DO etc. I would submit more patches but they just dont seem to get a response, so why waste my time really.

Judging by the n00b questions you asked recently in pear-general, you don't really have any extensions and so are just trolling here.

What noob question - you mean the one regarding your Sigma (which i like very much thanks) this was mostly due to poor documentation, I explained this to you in my reply. No need to insult me here Alexey that was a cheap shot.

So I was right and you don't have these "extensions"? And please note that you were the first to do "cheap shots" by explicitly naming the package I maintain (QuickForm) and implying that its maintainers don't respond to suggestions. I didnt imply "maintainers don't respond to suggestions." with quickform, I was generalising and thats wrong of me sorry, but Alexey you are a very personal person and thats just out of order.

and probably one of the main reasons I am losing faith in PEAR.

I am not "PEAR", and there are lots of more polite people among its developers. So please consider losing faith in me personally.
