[Bug 390508] Re: notifyOSD ignores the expire timeout parameter

 

Matthew Paul Thomas (mpt) we don't know how many people are annoyed with
this bug vs those who are not because today, we simply don't have as
many competent programmers as we did a decade ago (before the tech
industry boom) that will delve this deep into a problem amoung the
programming community.

Obviously with this many comments and complaints alone we could say that
this is an issue that isn't going away.
