Comment 1857 for bug 1

Well, I don't think Mark said anything like 'give up'. I agree that this bug has evolved to the point that it has to be closed due to a major change in character. My suggestion: Mark (not anyone else) submit a new bug commanding the 'state of the art'. If Mark is still of folowing this after closing off the bug.

Regarding non-foss software. It might not be our ideal, but folk ought to be allowed to make a penny from their work if they so wish. The late versions of our software-centre reflect this.
