That was certainly not anti-American drivel. It was factual
observation, with no intention of insulting. Actually, I'm not sure
how you could have been offended. What, specifically, was offensive?

If that's the way you feel, then I'll respect your wishes and not use
your software. Other than Rosegarden, let me know what other software
you've had a hand in and I'll keep away so long as is feasible. You
are overreacting and taking offense where non need be taken, but
that's your right to do.

While I'm being fucked, I'll let you know that _you_ actually, are the
type of FOSS dev that I admire. I knew that you drive a truck before
you mentioned it in this thread. And I know that is because you didn't
finish your degree because the girlfriend->wife got pregnant. With no
formal software background, your work on the docs got you into the
Rosegarden CVS, and then you started adding code. There was a whole
writeup a few months ago in some Linux mag, I'm sure that you know
what I'm talking about. That's admirable, and I personally have
nothing against you, your country, or any factual generalizations
about your countrymen. Note that it was not _me_ that suggested that
the naming convention be a cultural matter, rather, I supported the
argument with an observation.
