Never I try to claim any expertise and never I try to complain of
anything. It is just give some thought/idea for developers and experts
like yourself and Peter about what I, as a user, feel.

About the size of ISO, what I want to say is:
Do not worry so much about the size ( as long as below 700 MB),

May be I should just write it to the point and not write it like
complaining about disc not full, really stupid indeed. Offcourse I did
burn small ISOs file like IPCOP or any other ISOs I want to use.

I thought INX invites user feedback as below:
=========================================================================================

You don't need to be an "expert" to give useful feedback - in fact the
idea is to make INX work well for people who are just starting, and
are a bit scared of the console. If you have questions, feel free to
ask at that email address.
=====================================================================================

But looks like some feedbacks are considered not productive and some
sort of complain?

Do something productive?  Well, for me it is very-very difficult. I do
not know any programming at all. But I thought giving feedback is
productive, but I might be wrong though.

I did try to make some script to help people installing e-Sword
through wine. Very simple and stupid script though:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=404042

Furthermore, the download progress using zenity stop working on
intrepid. On Hardy, it show the download speed and the download
progress. So, I decided to file a bug report (not sure if it was
treated as a feed back or complain, but I am happy as the ubuntu
developer take action on that):

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zenity/+bug/294498

By the way, It is the first time I see gNewSense, looks quite
interesting. I will take a look, but I am really afraid to say what I
feel about that website/the program, lest somebody might thought I am
ungrateful and complain for what is already free.

Regards,
David
