[Lubuntu-qa] [Feedback Needed] zram-config

[leszek.lesner at web.de]

I don't get your Problem Ali. 
I thought you tested out zram and I explained how it technicaly worked. If the unamed Community you are working together with still does not see the benefit then they maybe don't know what you are talking about and simply don't understand the technical background.
Maybe an argument like apple now uses this for their new osx version too might be something to convince them. 

All in all zram or how it was called in previous incarnations compcache is nothing new really. Most smartphones use this technology to boost memory space like my n9 here. As modern computers nowadays have lots of ram applications tend to use more (see chromium). So even for this 4GB or even 8GB RAM machines zram can be usefull as a fallback swappartition. (that you normally don't create on hd for this machines). 


For the community stuff and the other stuff you were talking about. I don't see a big issue. Sharing is still the fundamental innovation engine for almost all opensource projects including lubuntu. I guess you missunderstood phill.

Hi,


z-RAM is a part of lubuntu desktop, it has been found to be useful and will continue to be a part of lubuntu until such time as its usefulness is gone (i.e. goes unsupported / has a major bug). 


Hi Phill,


As you are the wise member over here, can you please explain whether it is allowed or not allowed to share a successful idea of Lubuntu Saucy with other projects? is that stealing? is that something not recommended with Open Source Communities? I fail to understand some replies over here. I feel like ... I don't know what is going on?


So, could you please be so kind and explain whether 'sharing' ideas became something unwanted and unwelcomed? Please understand, I always give the credit with this successful idea to Leszek and Lubuntu and NEVER to myself as I was just a tester not the one who came up with this idea. JUST in case this is a fuzzy point to some people over here :)


I'm so confused and puzzled. What the real deal here?


By the way, if my emails are not welcome anymore then by all means, I promise you that you won't be disturbed anymore but have a second thought and remember what I have done to this Community. If suddenly, that has been forgotten and miraculously vanished, then this is truly bad. Better put my efforta, time and energy somewhere that really appreciate what does volunteering and helping out means :) so, I need to know what is the deal here?


Waiting to hear back from you, Sensei :)
