That in no way replies to what I said. It was his statistics I was querying, and I still do. I just have the folder reply set to "reply to list". I would have said that that, or something similar, was true of the majority of debian users, tho' patently not all, and equally patently I too have no real evidence. So, I repeat: on what do (you and) he base the assertion that the majority of those on this list agree with you?
