Re: [Gerbv-devel] A problem reported on sparkfun?

[Stuart B. <sd...@cl...>]

Thanks!  Please let us know if his problem has been resolved, if he
was confused, or if there was a real problem.

Hmmm, if he was confused, I wonder if he (or somebody) could explain
what was wrong on the list, and how to do the right thing using gerbv?
I always hate to see unresolved complaints about the software left
hanging in public, particularly if it's user error....   Many people
assume open-source apps are crap, and stuff like this reinforces that
impression.  Also, if he was doing something wrong, others will make
the same mistake, and having the answer to his problem show up via
Google is a useful thing for everybody.

Cheers,

Stuart
