Crap.
Sorry, you're totally right. That rant doesn't belong on this list, and it
certainly shouldn't have been directed at you lot. My frustration got the
better of me, and I should know better by now.
Still, the first time I need to use a Java project, it doesn't have a build
system, and its only dependency is a library maintained by complete cowboys.
How unlucky am I?
But yeah, I can't justify even projecting that onto "the Java community"
(whatever the hell that is), let alone debian-java.
Apologies again, I'll go vent somewhere else now, and stop wasting everyone's
time here.
Regards,
Adam
