Annoying

Translation from Romanian - and yes, I know this is Open Source, free, etc and I really want to use it, and I'm grateful to the people who have the skills and time to produce this stuff.

From the Komplete Lite installer:

"To change the write permissions on the folders reported as problematic, you will have to detect the user the apache process is started under (ps aux |grep httpd) and to manually execute the "chown nobody.nobody path" - where nobody is the user the Apache process and the path is the problematic path."

Okay, other than the fact that OS X chown uses : instead of ., THERE ARE TWO REFERENCES TO NOBODY! Argh! What does "is the user the Apache process" mean? I think it is missing an 'of', and what is actually needed is "chown [user]:nobody " on the files it's barfing on; despite this being done in OS X GUI (Get Info, drop down menus etc., on both files and folders), it's still not working. Komplete Lite isn't listed as Mac OS X software, but Unix is Unix is Unix. This is a simple problem that I'm sure if I knew what the actual problem was, I'd have fixed ages ago.

And:

People who submit to CDDB, and either type IN ALL CAPS, or get the artist and track backwards, or put it all on one line then put 'Various Artists' in the artist section - I'm coming to get you, you spackers. Especially the ones that also can't decide how to title each CD of a 4CD set, so come up with a new way each time...

(Are labels doing this now? It seems to be the older stuff that is really badly affected).
