This is try two... my previous mail did not come back, so I looked at the archive of this mailing list and also there it is missing. Then I compared the archive with my the mails that I received on the mailinglist (I never delete any mail) and it seems that archive is selective in what it archives? Or am I wrong?
Anyway - here is what I replied before (this time leaving out the quote): ==========begin of what is missing from archive=========== From: Carlo Wood <ca...@alinoe.com> To: a...@gnu.org (Alfred M.

If he says this is a bad thing, then it is a bad thing. Hence I reject it (actually, I just ignore it) and move on to other things. Have a good day, Carlo Wood (author of countless GPL-ed things) =====the rest of the quote is not repeated this time=====
