Len, and all the developers of Postfix software, scripts, RPMs, etc., that
we could find have been invited to contribute to postfixgate.com. Most are
busy with their own efforts. Heck, we even offered to host their sites for
free. That's right, hard drive space, bandwidth, mailing lists, everything
for free, but we did not receive one taker. The world is full of
individuals making individual efforts who are part of a community. We would
like to be a group of individuals who are part of a community whose effort
is driven by the common goal to fight Spam, but we don't want to leave
anyone out especially Len, and those who develop supportive software,
scripts, RPMS, etc., for Postfix.
With all the effort I've made personally to bring Len into this effort, I've
concluded he just doesn't want to spread himself too thin. Nothing wrong
with that. If winning credibility means having Len onboard then I guess we
are out of luck. Len isn't interested. I'm a big Len supporter too. I
would like to believe he supports the effort being put into the postfixgate
database. We'll just have to let the users of the postfixgate database
decide if we are credible.
