Jaromil, you are a prince.

Yes, I am sarcastic and inclined to mock when I think something is
fanatical and/or purblind. I am often wrong, and all too often woefully
undercaffeinated. I also have a nasty habit of backing people into
corners, which I need to stop doing.

Which is to say, all too human (or perhaps I'm a commentbot masquerading
as a human), but not the enemy of anyone here, and not posting just to
provoke or annoy.

Well, I perfectly understand the urge to initially say 'Oh, not another
net.random slagging us unfairly'. You're busy; I don't expect you to
drop everything just because I put up a Web page. Actually, I applaud
your having until today worked on Devuan rather than reading my
doodlings. It's a lot more important.

That's a good idea. I'll do that.
