You were addressing this list and I am part of the list, so I replied. Seems straightforward enough. If your mail was for a subset of this list, maybe that should have been clearer in the original mail or sent direct? > (2) I was not requesting sponsorship. See above. It looked like it to me.

I have not done anything of the sort and if you have misread my requests due to who knows what reason, it is nothing to do with me. I don't killfile anyone. I'm not impolite although sometimes direct. If you see attitude problems where none exist, I can't do much about that except continue to contribute in a constructive and efficient manner as I have done for some time. Nothing I have said on this list or any other public list should be contorted into the meaning you appear to ascribe. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
