Look either you have a brain or you don't. You appear to be in the later category. When you can code, give me a call, I'll give you a $30k a year job to produce flawless code.

Where the f*k did that come from? The point in previous posts -- mental midget -- was that wuFTP is notoriously buggy; that, despite it being open source, it's a regular bug pump. I didn't make this up. Your fellow Linux trolls admitted it just as readily. So, if open source really works as the sycophants say it does, there wouldn't be the number of bugs as there are. But quite frankly, I'm a realist and, having actually studied software engineering unlike many of the Linux blowhards around here, I understand that there will always be bugs in software. Period. You can spend an infinite amount of time and money or you can accept a finite number of bugs. So, if you're trying to preach the religion of software engineering, you're preaching to the choir. And really ... you can't afford me. Not by a long shot.

I agree on the software engineering thought; but I don't think wuFTP is any indication of open source software reliability per se. What it does point out is that anybody -- anybody -- can whip up some code, call it a 'project' on Freshmeat, and have people download it without any vetting. Good or bad, that's the way it is, and the user must do some due diligence on the quality of the software.
