To truly believe that uselessness (such as advertising the pressing of a button) should be rewarded is terribly short-sighted.

That's what I meant when I said that it spoke volumes about what you consider to be a contribution in FOSS. If you think that saying 'oh, I forked a dead project to keep it alive' and posting it without having accomplished anything is anything more useful or productive than pointing out how useless that is, then I'm afraid your definition of contribution is as shallow as your understanding of constructive criticism.

On a more personal note, I'm growing weary of spoon-feeding you. It is not very complex yet you still struggle to grasp the simplest of explanations.

You seem to be having an argument with your own imagination, because I never said OP should rewarded, nor that post this was a contribution to FOSS.

Love it. Personal attacks are the sign of an intelligent, well-reasoned person. Thanks for the laugh.

What is imaginative is your ability to backtrack and pull a strawman in what I can only assume is your last ditch effort to preserve your ego.
