I'm just reading the thread and I was able to spot the answer of your question. You can even spot it yourself... It's some line higher in the message. Let me copy it for you, so it's easy : -- This diff might give you an idea of some of the problems with -- thissoftware (sadly broken TLS setup so have to click through -- warning): -- https://gitlab.com/woob/woob/-/merge_requests/228/diffs#85eabf8cd7ee0b4611976309bd723f6ad7b301c4_785_784 Either one of two things : You don't speak English (where I doubt it's the case) You lack in good faith in your exchange on the channel. This make it very annoying for people to see such acting out. And doesn't help much in progressing any type of debate. I have no idea what are your plan to reach down the road but you may get much more than you expect. > > mick -- Polyna-Maude R.-Summerside -Be smart, Be wise, Support opensource development
