The bind-users mailing list’s purpose is to discuss BIND 9. As this thread is now widely off-topic, and I don’t want to hear more insults about me or my team, especially from people who has been already moderated for misbehaving (no, I am not letting that email through), I am putting the mailing

Why not? It clearly shows that arguing this 'free' argument is a bit narrow. Because the scenarios are completely different. By using open source software you enter a legal contract. No that is not the point of open source software. The point of open source software is that the code is available

I don't think you got the point. Can it be you are working on 9.18? ;P Luckily legislation is different and your kid is being protected from such bad behaviour. If some volunteer is helping your kid cross the road and it gets hit, he is as liable as any other person (if he fucked up) So doing

I don't like or appreciate rants. Rantors are not all the same and so I do not have a universal rule how to treat them. In this instance, for me the product rant was not that aggressive that I would remove the user if I were list owner. I would remind the user that rants like this are not appre
