No. He mentioned he already removed ~/.evolution, but he did not mention
he knows about other potential data loss.

Remember, this is not a private conversation between the both of you.
Others have participated as well, to solve this. And a lot of folks just
read it, getting the impression it is save to do so -- which it isn't.

If you're commenting on bugs, do so in bugzilla -- but don't in here.
That's what bugzilla is for, keeping detailed track of the bugs status.
Do not expect every single one of us to track both the list and every
single bug in bugzilla. At a minimum, mention the bug number in the
thread.

I haven't been impolite. And don't tell /me/ how it is on the Evo lists.

I'm here to help. And unlike you, I'm doing this voluntarily in my spare
time.  Which obviously does not affect /my/ comments being informative
and detailed. [1]

If you want me to leave, say so.

Either way, I will take the freedom to participate in the community,
help complete strangers fixing their issues (cause I do believe in this)
and venting once in a while if need be. Deal with it.

[1] I have been getting a lot of private responses by users who just
managed to fix their issues due to long-ago archived posts I hardly
could remember.
