Hi folks,
I trust all is well.
I believe this email will spark something so I will cc Kevin in it because of multiple reasons.
I would like somethings to be clear from the word go.
I am not too sure where to start with this email.
I have combined emotions of extremely mad and extremely excited at the same time .
First I would like to thank all those who have been kind enough to offer their assistance.
I would also like to say thank you to those that have started brainstorming.
I am sure in sometime we will be able to see the fruits of our labor.
Now in regards to the reason why I am least amused today. I am going to be straight to the point and clear with this. I do not appreciate a user who is here to critic and offer no solution. I generally follow open source ethics but if your job is to come in and critic with a lot of rubbish opinions (yes I am referring directly to whoever posted that this is not something to look into and even worse insist on it) then please don't waste your time. Keep off this thread.
It does not amuse me to the slightest bit when criticism is given with no solution. I understand when someone makes a mistake. I also understand when someone has a valid point.
I do not understand when you give an opinion with a solution being you will never use the service.
You can not rate something before use.
I would also advice you have a look at the mailing list guidelines so that you are up to speed.
The best of minds are probably here with us, people do not mention who they work for but trust me they are here. Fine we admit google is miles ahead. I personally know they took time to get there.
I also have read their papers and there are open source solutions that have been mentioned earlier (Apache lucene/sol) that try and mimic this. Seeing it is for our use , which in my opinion is small I think it is a great start.
Third, free and open source is all that is used here. simple.
I would therefore proceed to mention, if you are not contributing in a positive way, be kind to the world. We do not have super cow abilities.
Kind Regards,
Onuonga Frankie
