To be honest, Mike and all others, the hostility in this list was worse in the past. I felt some improvement in this respect. I don't follow other linux lists to be able to compare, but in forums certainly there are competition and hostility, so I don't think debian is a special case of hostility.
I'm not arguing one way or the other about direction of movement. I also made sure that I included other distros in my statement. I don't think Debian is very special in this regard. I do think that this and other echoes would benefit from less hostility. It's sad when a newcomer to the list asks whether the list managers might change the list to make the Reply-to: field be the list itself, and a flame war erupts. Mike -- p="p=%c%s%c;main(){printf(p,34,p,34);}";main(){printf(p,34,p,34);} This message made from 100% recycled bits. You have found the bank of Larn. I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you. I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
