Now, you are lucky that I already know you and I know that you are usually helpful and cooperative, so I know that you probably didn't mean the aggressive tone you used. But presumably Hans doesn't know you, so his reaction was understandable. Hans is one of the main contributors to the hwmon subsystem and the lm-sensors project in general. I would be grateful if the users he tries to help could treat him with the respect he reserves. If he was to leave the project, this would be a significant loss, and this is something I really want to avoid. Thanks, -- Jean Delvare
