Quoting Alan Horkan <horkana@...44...>:
That is condescending and dismissive.
English is a rotten language sometimes, terribly lacking in precision.
Please do try to read through the Gnome Human Interface Guidelines even reading a little of it might help give a sense of some of the underlying concepts.
You may want to carefully examine your own tone.
Yeah, sorry I got a little carried away.
Best if I wait until tomorrow before writing a calmer and better thought out series of responses to the various points. I admit I did throw out a laundry list of minor gripes which do however all add up and give an idea as to why someone like the user on that forum might dismiss Inkscape so casually but in the larger scheme I shouldn't have gotten so bothered about.
I'll respond to the other points later.
Sincerely
Alan Horkan
