Re: [Savannah-hackers-public] administration of project 'chkpkglic' (was: emails and etc. I'm not burnt out.)

[Sylvain Beucler]

Hi,

As I mentioned, if there's a problem with another admin in a Savannah
project, contact him first (and not Karl).  You have to consider that
maybe there was a mistake (and not an evil plot against you). We're
all volunteers.


> [...] I asked Karl if I could do was beyond what I would expected.

>From https://launchpad.net/~lajjr I take it you are a US resident and
a fluent English speaker.  Please make an effort with grammar, I can't
make any sense of this sentence.  We're not all native English
speakers and we need clear wordings to understand each others.

(alternatively consider simple English
e.g. http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_English)

PS: also please don't reply via address@hidden (why
on earth?)
