Far enough back that I wouldn't expect most subscribers to remember it. If this list /is/ intended for kernel (rather than userspace) networking issues, then: 1. The "Welcome to linux-net" message from Majordomo should probably say so. Otherwise there isn't any reason to suspect that userspace networking is off-topic. 2. Off-topic posts should be handled consistently. There have been plenty of posts which, while farther off topic than the one in question, never received any such comments. -- Glynn Clements <glynn@sensei.co.uk> - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org
