If someone added it to the freebsd-config mailing list, they should not have mailed a copyritten piece on a mailing list for public use. This has been added to the bottom of the page since we are unsure of the originator:

You've been provided both with an archive of initial publication including [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s address as the author, as well as a URL to a DMCA takedown notice hosted in his webspace. This is sufficient. *It seems this David Hoffman is directly attacking our group. Because there
are no references to HOUFUG being a part of an organized group to adopt English as the official language. HOUFUG does not have any political ties with anyone. We only have a FreeBSD mailing list to discuss FreeBSD issues. *
I'm not directly attacking your group. If you're not political, and I'm arguing against something political, how could I possibly be 'attacking' your group? "On a related note, the FUG seems to be part of an organized group to
convince all States to adopt English as an official language, a bigoted and misguided policy." I personally have a link to the US English organization on my PERSONAL home page of www.ingridfuller.com. This has nothing to do with HOUFUG or FreeBSD at all. What I believe in is my business and my right as a citizen of the United States. This is NOT a misguided or bigoted policy. We've been speaking English since Day 1 and the International Language is "ENGLISH".
You certainly have a right to be misguided and bigoted. Americans have spoken English since 'Day 1', but they've also spoken several other languages since that time, and today speak even more. The lingua franca of the world today may be English, but it doesn't follow from that that it should be the official language of all states. *Ingrid Kast Fuller
