What I meant was that I don't want to be *discriminated against* for having a bad attitude. I agree that I did not try to phrase things nicely or anything like that, but sometimes it's good to be just be honest (for both sides, I would construe). See further below too.

Sorry, I should disclaim that -- I did not mean to suggest you have any monopolistic plans, or that you work on Rosegarden for other reasons then "love".

What I meant was that, whether you like it or not, you ARE a de-facto monopoly. You could take that as praise, after all -- no other Linux software comes close to Rosegarden's capabilities.

I've been spending hours and hours composing in Rosegarden and getting increasingly frustrated. So finally I put my OTHER hemisphere to work and verbalized my complaints. That's quite a bit of constructive work, even if it didn't seem like that. True, I could have done the extra work of toning down the comments coming from the angry hemisphere, but I don't see why that should be required.

Thanks for the shortcuts. It would be nice if the tooltips displayed those shortcuts, instead of the self-evident (bordering on useless for musicians) "[Eight note]", "[Quarter note]" etc tips.
