"accusing" ?  I think it is pretty clear that more than a 
little projection is going on here.  I offered a description 
of methodology, hard numbers on six archives, and the 
generation script to nail down numbers.  Before your most 
recent email, .... nope

The _reason_ that it was off an EPEL thread (EPEL of course 
being PART OF FEDORAPROJECT, last time I looked) is that is 
the harder one to solve, and also there was a thread going as 
to planning a meeting, of which that hard data was a part


If I go to a car dealer and seek to buy a car and ask a price, 
and am told by the salesperson:

	"more than 3000" dollars

they have not yet not told me a price they will sell the car 
at
