in other words:

we are changing things for EVERYBODY so that no one can complain
it was changed only for him - technical nonsense

sometimes it feels more developers have contracts with book wirters
to give a godd reason to buy the next version of a book because you
can throw away all existing ones

there where books written in 1998 which where perfectly until 2006/2007
and mostly 2009, they contained informations which where valid for decades
and now things are chnages each month - and this is the right direction?

it is NOT!
this has NOTHING to do with the unix paradigms
