"I think the Hurd build system is a good one, and the Linux build system could be improved by following the Hurd's example": stating an opinion. "The Linux build system sucks, everybody should use the Hurd": inflammatory, argumentative, immature drivel that doesn't merit bandwidth or disk space anywhere, let alone in a mailing list whose subscriber base consists largely of users and developers of Debian GNU/*Linux*. See the difference? I'm sure you have reasons for believing that the Hurd is better; but common sense would dictate that you not express that point of view in such a denigrating matter while you're still in the queue waiting for admission into a community of developers, many of whom disagree with your opinion -- and even more of them with your attitude.
