I shall be more clear, in that case. I have little or no problem with generalised swearing. It's a part of modern language and while I generally would not use it in professional written communications myself, I'm not going to attempt to censor anyone else for it. What I do not believe is acceptable is ad hominem attacks. There were what I believe were implied anti-Semetic comments made during the recent thread and that is not something that is allowed. Simple as that. Brian Co-Chair, RIPE AA-WG
