[Nexus 7 Original Development] rascarlo:
there are some things in the last few weeks that made me sad.

first it was about rassaber:
[MENTION=2394329]sparksco[/MENTION], a developer who has his own projects for few devices, took the time to bring all his optimization goodies to rasbean. i thought whoa dude, thanks. he has done all by himself, all the tree, the commits, the tweaks, everything. result was an optimized rasbean. after the initial hype, somebody started reporting some slowdowns, lags... well things happen, nothing is perfect but it seemed to me that many didn’t realize all the work [MENTION=2394329]sparksco[/MENTION] put into it. and that made me sad. something like: hey bro i want to help you and plant a tree but if the fruits are bad, i will blame you and go eat somewhere else. that is not nice.

second it is about all the blue thoughts and feeling about rasbean:

one day i decided to look around and read what people think about rasbean, and there is so much love but also so much ****.

I had to read about people talking about rasbean as

a CM kang

a dead project

a rom by a lazy-developer

a cherry-picked **** build

a stupid rom

an old rom

no theme chooser? **** rasbean

no customizable tile? **** rasbean

no DSP? **** rasbean

and then read about users saying rasbean doesn’t have that because it is too hard for the developer to implement it, doesn’t have that because rascarlo doesn’t know how to, rasbean is not optimized with GPL/LINARO/GCC5000/BS/BS because he doesn’t know how.

LOL

this, LOL.

rasbean is rasbean, I am proud of my build, it is my work, it is mine. i won’t talk about other roms and their “developers” because it won’t be fair. i speak for myself. rasbean is a result of what i know, of what i am able to do, java, some python, some c++. and i like to be honest first with myself and then with all the people who run my builds: i see no pleasure or fun to fork and tweak tons of repos with cherry-picks from linaro/codeaurora/etc/etc because that is too much for me and it won’t be my work. i admire CM, PA, AOKP, carbon because they are products of a team and they know what they are doing. PA is unique, it is a piece of art, they chose their path and there they go. CM is CM. AOKP i love them, WhiteHawk and Roman, they have fun and don’t fill their bellies and mouths with ****.

third was the disappointment:

so i build rasbean, rasvanilla, rassaber. my code is and was always there since day0, everything is there, no hidden repos, no unavailable source, everything under the sun. my git history is there, rasbean was not born in one day, i didn't tweak the frameworks in three days.

i was always encouraging people to learn to build from source, from my source. helped people to set up their building environment, set up Linux/Ubuntu, learn git, learn eclipse, and wtf

when i was away and a new tag was dropped for some missing repos, i remotely helped to build a new version with the new tags up to date. Ok i am not here to make a list but i assume you see my point.

rasbean is my thing. and it is sad to see users ****ting on it. it is not only a rom for me, it is something else.

i understand i can't close the threads and force users to build from source because some don't have the time/wish to build from source

so yeah there will be builds again
