Sorry but here's where I unsubscribe for a couple of months while the
same stuff is rehashed as it was a few months ago. Does this totally
unscientific poll have any real use? Apart that is from reigniting the
antediluvian arguments like mutt v emacs, bash v korn etc.
Sheesh... sort by thread, delete key. Not difficult...
There is a method to gauge the popularity of FLOSS apps built into
every
Debian installation. If you haven't enabled it yet, do so and
eliminate
this totally superfluous 'poll'.
You might have mentioned that it's called "popularity-contest" and can
be found via your favorite package manager. :-)
Picture yourself standing in a big room with a hundred people all
having different conversations... imaging yelling at the top of your
lungs "I'm tired of hearing that group over there talking about that!
I'M LEAVING!"
Think anyone would, a) care?, b) not think you were insane?
That's pretty much the equivalent of what most "I'm leaving the list"
messages amount to. No one cares, we all just shake our heads and
say, "There goes a very troubled person."
