On being rude to Randy Ubillos

[Craig Seeman]

But English does have roots in so many other languages.

Judging from the reaction to FCPX people don’t seem to be seeing it as built on anything they can recognize, hence the reason why I thought of Esperanto.

Esperanto was supposed to be an easy to learn language. No country has adopted it. It’s a constructed language with no genealogy related to any ethnic language although it has elements related to other languages.

While I’m not speaking to the technical roots of FCPX, I thought the reaction to it as something that is not an outgrowth of legacy FCP (no genealogy to that “ethnicity”), not adopted by anybody, supposedly designed to be easy to learn whose paradigm would be the new “international” language of the NLE.

Modern NLEs could be Latin though. I’m not sure if those who speak other languages would think of English as an advancement nor would English speaker feel that language were an advancement over other languages.

Basically I’ve viewing the reaction to FCPX and the challenge Apple has it getting it’s new language accepted.

I think the task before Apple to get FCPX accepted as an international language as more difficult road and has had a more virulent reaction than the English language has.

I just came back to this wandering back down the threads – it really is, as ever with craig, an absorbingly accurate observation.
