Quoth KILLES "When you've helped more Newbie-Developers(!) than I (in #drupal), you may make such remarks." Why does the channel matter? I've helped dozens or hundreds of fledgling folks take their first steps. You're probably the one who sent them to #drupal-support where I helped them. Development support abounds in that channel because some folks are actually scared to poke their heads into drupal (jeez, um guess why?) "working with it" entails *doing what people expect*, not shoving them off. --fletch On 7/31/07, Gerhard Killesreiter <gerhard@killesreiter.de> wrote:

Killes,
That's "Mr. Killesreiter" for you.
don't you see that it's this horrible condescending attitude that is the whole problem? Do you not *want* newbies? Are you allergic?

New folks are often in a rush to get their first project out the door. It's understandable. That's why they picked a CMS and didn't sit down to write an application. So they're in a hurry, glance at IRC channels, and find one that looks like it will help. *This will continue to happen no matter what the channel charters are*
So? We'll send them to the right place.
So, my vote is, let's work with it instead of fighting it all the time. Mr. Killesreiter
See, there you got it right.
we're having fun while the tumbleweeds blow in #drupal. Join us! It's your destiny ;-)
No.
I actually don't mind that there is less traffic now.
Cheers, Gerhard
