There, you've got my contributions. Last time I tried submitting anything it was dismissed without even a test because D. Greenman didn't seem to want anyone else touching his NE2000 driver.

Additionally, earlier offers at assisting ISA PNP weren't met with any kind of welcoming support, so I'm content to remain a user, and to continue developing other platforms. Your sarcasm isn't well received, Mr. Smith. --- Mike Smith wrote: > > The package description of Enlightenment is a bit > condescending: > > > > A very artistic X window manager.
