In all fairness the "fix" (that turned out not to work as such) sat in SVN for a while with no feedback. We needed to get a release out and made the decision to put out what we had. We will get this issue sorted out with another release prior to Evolution and very soon. Even if we don’t update the Crucible review, which should have been done in retrospect, it would be a huge help by keeping an eye out on the subversion repo and updating the reviews as appropriate for your particular issues.
I also appreciate that there’s a bit of a language barrier, but claiming that the development team does not react is just not true, and can be demotivating to be honest. Further stating we’ve lost drive ... again, not exactly the type of comment that makes you warm, fuzzy and feeling appreciated for giving away your hard work with no strings attached. We’ve dedicated our professional lives—and a lot of our personal ones as well—to MODx. The amount of work going into it is truly astounding.
Please do not take this as a request for an apology or praise, or an admonition of your feedback by any means. Really! However, everyone might briefly pause before hastily posting what could be taken incorrectly due to subtle cultural differences and translation shortfalls.
Most of all though, I’d like to encourage everyone to continue being persistent and proactive in the areas that need to be improved. The squeaky wheel gets the grease. snop you have done a great job in this regard both by providing a patch and by holding us accountable to getting it in there, even if you don’t love us anymore and think we suck and don’t care.
We’re always looking for great developers that can participate with commit privileges, especially in the areas surrounding non-English language issues(*hint*). Thanks for your patience and persistence.
