If this is typical behaviour of the list I don't think I will bother installing it this weekend. I have been a Linux user for about three years now. I still consider myself a newbie but jump in and give what answers I can when I can. I was under the impression Linux was a free operating system. Free to use and free to change to the way I want. It seems that in Franks case its not free for him to choose how he distributes a how to that he has invested his time and effort in producing. In his posting he stated that he had had problems with wiki's in the past though he had not used the CentOS wiki. So lets cut the chap some slack. I for one would like to say thanks Frank for giving some time and effort back to the community. -- Guy Fawkes, the only man to enter the house's of parliment with honest intentions, (he was going to blow them up!)
