Well I know bashpodder had to write around it to fix the bug ( sorry
tracking feature ) but it was a classic example of what turns some
people off from being involved in our community. Since if you read the
responses ( heck even heard some of the answers ) I received when i
raised the issue youd think I was being an idiot for not being able to
handle the issue within bashpodder. If we considered the responses and
discussions around this topic and asked ourselves if they encouraged or
discouraged an inclusive attitude within our community ?
[1] Here i define a standard as that which is currently defined by the
majority of podcast enclosures.
