Re: What happened to the comments?
You guys should go get a life. Or better yet volunteer to take over the maintainance of the AUR. This isn't a paid-for distro/software, he does not owe you anything.

Please give me an ssh account so I can do this.
I already have volunteered.

"You never get the people who matters attention on the forums."

I wish the grammatical flow of the sentence was a bit better, given that it's so eminently quoteable.
Good ideas do not need lots of lies told about them in order to gain public acceptance.

I give permission for all spelling (seriously, mailn... WTF?) and grammatical errors to be corrected and the quote can still be attributed to me.

Don't blame Allan's grammar skills. Your English wont be any better if you were upside down all day long.

Re: What happened to the comments?
For those still wondering, Mr Chang said my offer to manually add stuff to the database would be waaay too much work and that he would get around to doing it more elegantly sooner or later. If you think you know enough MySQL to write a good fix and you have time, please ask for server access and spare us the wait!
