Dudes, give him a break. I am as hopeful as you are that he will get a
chance to work on GNOME again, but he said he has to make school a higher
priority, and it's not right to insist that he finish this project at the
peril of his well-being and larger life... Maybe you would like to go
without {food,sleep,housing} for a few days/weeks/centuries until you make
GNOME2 compile?

People are busy trying to get GNOME HEAD stuff to compile, and they will
pick up the slack (or at least, I feel more obligated to try and help out,
anyways). Martin is the most dedicated contributor I know of, but GNOME is
bigger than any single contributor, and the project must go on.

about it.  That's what is known as real maturity.	-- Snoopy
