@DodoFXP:
I'm finished with it now, OK? Just had to do that last one. Sorry.
Anyway, HER0_01 and I are both (I'm quite sure) under 17, so...

@HER0_01:
'course. Just recommend your stuff in the appropriate thread. Thanks. (At this point, it's not going to be a problem as regards conflicts of interest, since it's a vote...)

And anyone else, please, only two weeks to get a cross-section of forum opinion on stuff. I'd appreciate two minutes of your time. Thank you.

@Zenwalk addict:
I will. Thanks. As long as, if you write something for us, you let me proofread it afterwards? 1337 5p34k is fine on forums (most of the time) but wouldn't be suitable for the Newsletter. You know how it is.

That's everything for now, I think. I shall contact Zwopper tonight, I know he's busy so the forum-style art might not be ready for the next issue. But anyway.

1337 5p34k

Well, i am not really that smart to write articles on my own.

it meas leet speak meaning elite speak meainging the highly abreviated form.
Although your way of typing is more phonetic, as you type "u" instead of "you" sometimes and your grammar isn't 100% there yet...

So he has to write more entries, does he? And you (not me mine won't be better) should proofread all of them.

Anyway we're even at least 3 under 17 because you can also count me.

Nevertheless I could also try to help here and there as needed. I still have at least 1 school year that will be quite normal and less stressful. So time shouldn't matter (more for what the time is used, might it be useful or rather useless).

So if there's any work I could help with just ask me, I'll try to help where I can. Though I also won't be the best for writing articles despite already the 6th year of school english and many english artickles there's still too less practical experience writing as well as especially speaking and listening.

Nah.. that ain't my job, plus it's not as bad as it sounds from my post. Just flip two words every now and then. And it's not like no one understands what he is saying!
Actually, Zenwalk_Adict is one of the rising packagers, if I am not wrong, so he's contribution is by far higher than mine, with or without spelling!

Who has no fault should throw the first stone, we'd say in Germany. Everybody makes faults and I've seen especially in this Forum enough so that I can be sure there will be at least one for everybody no matter whether he's native speaker or not.

Don't misunderstand me, this was meant more jokingly than really serious. Didn't I try to show that with a smiley. Anyway, yes, I agree as long as you can understand people it's no problem. We have enough nearly ununderstandable examples of the opposite.

Das gibt es nicht nur auf Deutsch
..but I guess we are moving away from the topic...

Ah, sorry, now. I didn't mean to present poor Zenwalk addict in a bad light there. I was just saying that I hope he'd be OK with it. (Anyway, Zenwalk addict, you could write an article on your own.) And, true, it's not really 1337 5p34k (examples are t3h, pr0n, r0Xx0r, etc.). Also, I absolutely agree that understanding is the most important thing, but when it comes to published literature like a newsletter, we need it to be as close to perfect as possible. The better the Newsletter looks, the better we look.

As to the large amount of young people here, I am surprised. Shador I certainly wasn't expecting (and @Shador: I'm seriously struggling with French in my final year, and I'm quite a good student really! ). Actually I might start a topic about the language thing in Misc, looks like it's getting a bit of interest. With a view to talking about it in ZWN No.2... See you there.

Any other questions/comments, you know what to do.

Wow, your guys are pretty serious about me typing short instead of long words. Well its more of a habit for me to write like that rather than just intentionally doing it.


Lol cmon, i have only packaged 2 software's till date. Now trying to compile and build MonoDevelop. But the getting hell lot of errors. I really wonder i need SNAPSHOT gnome.

Ofcourse, i am not an UK or US guy to have 100% grammar correct, neither i am expert in English.

But the point is, you are good enough at it. And that's all we need on the forums. You don't need to improve your English for us (and if someone says you should they're wrong) but if you were to write something for the Newsletter, I'd need to proofread it. That's all I'm saying. Now can we leave this alone? I have a topic for it in Misc if anyone still wants to talk about it, but this is looking less and less like the Newsletter Comments topic...

Well sure, your the leader for the newsletter. Unless your approval, i dont want some thing go out to the file. So ya youll get what i would write, if i some things comes to my mind.

Yes, I suppose I am.

Well, anyway. Feel free to PM me with ideas you have, you know.

Just keeping the ball rolling, as it were. I've written most of my Paragraph On Forum Goings-On for Newsletter No.2. We're sticking with the original art for No.2, as Zwopper is too busy and I'm too talentless. However after No.2 we will definitely review it with reference to the various criticisms aired in this topic earlier.

Anyway, PM or post with questions or whatever. Also:

Please VOTE!

Sorry, but it doesn't seem to be getting through. The topics are around this one somewhere, I'm looking to get those stickied once the Newsletter takes off.

Thank you for your time.

Probably we should write an anouncement, because IMO most people don't know about the newsletter. I like probably others don't read in all sections but though they are becoming more only about half of all. Only if I think they are interesting/important for me.

I would propose something like I wrote in the Artwork Screenshot topic, of course proofread and improved. That screenshot thing was just a brainwave. (funny word , in German we say: Gedankenblitz (engl. literally: mind/thought flash) I know not better )
