I'm trying but I can't understand what you are trying to say here. Are you talking about leaking the fact that somebody replied to your own text by publishing their mail with all of their text removed and only your own quote remaining? It is there because the "[s]o far so good" clause contains the word 'explicitly', and it is absurd to have to explicitly grant yourself permission to quote your own text. Feel free to suggest some alternative wording. -- Iain Lane [ iain@orangesquash.org.uk ] Debian Developer [ laney@debian.org ] Ubuntu Developer [ laney@ubuntu.com ]
