I added rchart plugin to your site, but didn't know that this action
should be done by plugin author. I'm not author and already apologized
to author of plugin. Could remove this plugin? I think plugin's author
will add information of his plugin when register on this site.

Thank you.

I agree, its pretty lame that there's no way to just plugins/gems that
you don't author, other wise why have to wait for authors to add them.
Stupid.

Wow Rob,

"Stupid".  Really?

I think you just described your own actions, not the site that we provide and maintain (to you) for free.

Instead of stating publicly that Yehuda Katz, Paul Campbell, Brian Flanagan and myself are all idiots for not managing to implement a feature that is so blindingly obvious to the entire planet, why not post something useful and thoughtful, like a specification, or a way to implement this that would make sense?

Sometimes it just shocks me on how people such as yourself can make such wide and sweeping statements about people you have never met and code you have never looked at.

Please let me know if you have a more constructive statement to make.

Kind Regards

Hi there Fabian,

Yes, I can remove this plugin, that won't be a problem. Do you know if the author is actually using RailsPlugins? if so I can just transfer the ownership to him or her.

Kind Regards

Mikel
