[Ambassadors] FYI Fedora 12 one page release notes. :)

Wed Mar 31 04:45:57 UTC 2010

Pareciera que  se estan ahogando con un vaso de agua.

Nadie es monedita de oro para agradarle a todo el mundo, siempre vamos a encontrar personas a las que nuestra forma de pensar no les agrada, generalmente agradaremos al 75% de la gente, con eso deberia bastar para cualquiera, pienso que ya no se deberia hablar mas del asunto, lo que esta hecho, hecho esta, ya no se puede corregir, quiza en un futuro pueda haber un consenso para que esto no vuelva a ocurrir pero lo dudo, creo que a las cosas cosmeticas no debe ponerseles tanto empeño, lo que importa es el alma, la esencia de lo que se esta haciendo, sin importar la mascara que se le pone.

Por favor que alguien lo traduzca al ingles.
