Bryan, sometimes I think you read too much between the lines than generally advisable. Before you were on this list we didn't have such discussions and I don't feel there was an anti-Red Hat theme back then. To be honest, I think you're creating the anti-Red Hat feeling with some of the black and white comments and opinions (and maybe by repeating that you have to fight it). This list used to be about the technical part, not about politics and flavored opinions. That seemed to have changed when you started mailing :/ > I am a writer by trade.

And this obviously does not include the words/minute your mails are generating in reaction. I think you earn some of the credit for the reactions too, don't be too humble :p -- dag wieers, dag@xxxxxxxxxx, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [all I want is a warm bed and a kind word and unlimited power]
