Which means you miss stuff. Not my problem Alan. If the user gives a crap about their report mattering, they'll do what I ask them to do. If users send their report to the wrong place, it will get lost, just like if their cat their report into /dev/null. I have no reason to feel bad about the information getting lost. If it's too much for them to do as I ask, it's too much for me to consider their report. Bug reporting, just like patch submission, is a 2 way street. - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
