THIS cutting up was done by me 15. so suddenly there were 10 threads created .. with clear intent to end some 16. there was clear intent to continue the relevant ones 17. viewpoints about 'subsidies' were clearly indicated as 'off-list' matters 18. list-admin's post was duly respected by 'in deference to' remark by me if you did feel 'spammed' (maybe others too) .. we need to 'understand' the incident and take a step : A) to avoid such initiatives here b y having an alternative group where such matters can be hived off for furthering progress/development OR B) to allow ALL members to know initiatives (like ankug bangla desktop, bengali firefox, cantenna, localisations, mukto, RMS talks/meets, BF2005, Compass2005, meetings, etc) that are taken under the ilug-cal banner) to help all to know, evaluate, understand, appreciate and do something about this kind of recurring problem, please give your own input (ashwin can't respond since he is off list now ) all members to please do the right thing by NOT commenting/criticizing sanjay choudhury for his views .. but understanding his feelings .. caring for those .. and doing what is right .. so that we can go on with what this list was created for thank you ..pk sharma -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body "unsubscribe ilug-cal" and an empty subject line.
