It's not relative. Anyone not subscribed to devel@ gets a message telling them their posting is rejected. Not just held for moderation but rejected. > If you have a beed with my use of the lists, talk to me in private rather > than grandstanding on four lists. I think it's important to let others know that they will also be treated rudely if they attempt to cross-post to the openmpi list. I'll be happy to continue this conversation with you in private, if you wish, but have not done so in this mail to respond to your mischaracterisation of my actions as "grandstanding". -- "Bill, look, we understand that you're interested in selling us this operating system, but compare it to ours. We can't possibly take such a retrograde step." -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
