Bah, it is how an interview with one taliban, he is no OS4, no Hollywood programs, a "good example" of Amiga user.

It is difficult to answer this. As others pointed out, it seems you have misunderstood my news on MorphZone, so chances are high you will go to wrong conclusions with this post too.

I'm sorry if you feel offended by the news item. This was not my intention. Note however that without my news A.H.I.W. could go unnoticed on MorphZone. I've pointed out its unique features, as well as disadvantages. However after receiving your harsh reaction I doubt I will ever write a news about your future programs on MorphZone.

As a programmer, you should be prepared to constructive criticism. It is an important part of user feedback. It just means users are genuinely interested in your work and want you to make it better. In fact I appreciate constructive criticism to my programs more than just easy "great work" posts. If you don't like it and prefer to insist that your programs are ideal - well, let's be it, I will simply leave them alone.

While your argument "non-ideal programs are better than no programs" is valid, there are also things like GUI consistency and style guide. Hollywood has been designed as an engine for multimedia presentations, not as general purpose programming language. It evolved later in this direction (with MUI Royale, being the largest step), but it still carries its load.
