Wednesday March 24, 2004 I seem to have really ticked off John
Munsch. He seems to have misconstrued my weekend of pleasant hacking as
some great anti-open-source
conspiracy and a direct attack on his own project - which is also an RSS feed
reader. I have to admit that I
was completely unaware of his efforts, and I'm sure that his is a most
excellent piece of work, unlike the quick
hack I slapped together. Just because others have done RSS feed readers (or
any other kind of software), does not
mean that suddenly no one else has the right to do the same. I hack because
it's fun. I picked that topic because
it was interesting. It's sad that the good Mr Munsch feels stepped on. I did
not intend that. He does need to
lighten up and get a sense of humour. Life's to short to spend it wound up in
a knot of needless fury.
