That's not true. You didn't say anything but suggesting I post on the
gnotices story.
As for 0.99.2 you congratulated me on my work and then completely
ignored me, just as you've ignored me now.

That's also not true. I've known it since you complained in this thread.

What I think is that you disregard completely the need for signed
software. I did a MORE COMPLETE set of rpms, AND of SIGNED RPMS.

DO NOT try to induce anyone into thinking that I said to abandon
sourceforge towards savannah.

Because of a COMPLETE FALSE MOTIVE. Users cannot and will not be
confused because of having an alternative download site. That's complete
BS.

I... I... I... now I get it. It's not the false motive. Its you. The
false motive is just an excuse, is it? I don't believe in this, let's
become human again, ok?

BS. Adding a link for an alternative site for download does not add
extra time. Even less time if you only point to
http://savannah.gnu.org/download/abiword. That way you don't even have
to change that part of the text.

You are annoyed? Damn, I am what? Jumping and singing?
