Begone to them. This is silly, folks. I will agree that the tone of some posts to this thread has been quite rude, and that much of the bleating was of the unenlightened, kneejerk variety. But I hardly think, since community volunteers carry much of the weight of the support duties here, that it's any less rude to suggest that we should not speak our minds freely, or that the original question was inappropriate. Quality speaks for itself. For as long as Red Hat maintains its standards, the community isn't going anywhere, and I'll continue to buy my copy every 6 months. I don't see anything wrong with periodically questioning our vendor decisions, and I think it's equally valuable for Red Hat to witness the discussions, even if they're occasionally rude and uncalled for. You can sometimes learn as much from your thoughtful detractors as from your fans. That is my humble opinion. - -d - -- David Talkington PGP key: http://www.prairienet.org/~dtalk/0xCA4C11AD.pgp - -- http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/pale_blue_dot.html -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 6.5.8 Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.75-6 iQA/AwUBPEy4qb9BpdPKTBGtEQJMFQCeM81qUNK87asdoHxw+l8T25t4C9UAn2wy nyGY4eUpN7lZAPwVTSJ+ZAMG =otJ5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
