Indian context: first rule is unless it is an announcement of general interest to several lists, do not cross post. secondly if you urgently need a reply for your question, please realise that the members of these groups are not paid to reply to you. If you post on several lists, one list may give you the reply you want - all the others are left hanging wondering what the solution was. thirdly choose the list most likely to give a result. For me, for things related to hardware, embedded, kernel, anything related to licenses, and more arcane things like DRM and patents - Mumbai LUG programming and software in general - Chennai LUG python - the chennaipy and bangpypers local issues - the local LUG concerned OT trolling and igniting flamewars - Mumbai LUG If the list chosen does not offer a solution, then try on another list. (btw, why have you suddenly put a reply-to yourself in your list mails. most lists are set to reply-to list - but your reply-to overrides this and I find I am sending replies to you offlist. Please fix this) -- regards KG http://lawgon.livejournal.com Coimbatore LUG rox http://ilugcbe.techstud.org/ _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
