Re: apps-gnustep Digest, Vol 47, Issue 3

G=FCrkan,

I whole heartedly agree, hopefully the developers are reading this.  May=
be we should send them some encouraging emails.  I think every developer=
 likes to hear that people are using their programs and appreciate their=
 efforts, it is really easy to point out the bad and lose sight of all t=
he effort these people put in for free.

yours,
-j
