Great, when an interview subject responds, blast them on the front page of slashdot for taking so long -- that's a fabulous way to guarantee plenty more people will want to be interviewed.
In fact, that's a great life lesson in general -- make fun of people at every opportunity! You are ENTITLED to prompt service from everyone and anything!
Ms. Cooper answered the questions presented to her throughly and accurately, which she would have been able to do if she had answered 'promptly'. Sun has made alot of policy changes in recent months that would have made a prompt interview pretty worthless.
Shows what a pack of assholes the Slashdot crew can be.
Here are some potential future topics for/. along the same line as this one:
CmdrTaco finally learns to fucking spell Slashdot finally fixes the page-widening bug /. editors finally stop posting the same story 3x
Saying that she took a while isn't insulting. I take a while [read: months or years more than might naiively be expected] to get things without deadlines attached done sometimes, too. Saying as much is no sweat off my brow (unless I promised to have it done sooner).
Yes, she took a while to respond. That's no insult.
Maybe she was worried about the "Curse of Slashdot." DNA answers some questions, and he's dead within a year. It makes the Sports Illustrated cover jinx seem trivial...
Dude.. Calm down.. Nobody was "blasted", she did take a hella long time answering the questions.. I know I've been waiting for them for a while.. anyway, go drink a latte or something, you've got a little too much stress goin on over there.
