(sorry
It was really meant as a first try for some kind of a fair observation of some
real facts, which observed by more than one; lets call it "history
registration" :)
and not really as remark to you my boy :-)

you are just perfect Pierre, just believe it (you are by far the most carefull

missing comma was some kind of a crime!!! (extreme exaggeration (just play hard
with him :)) so, kidding for the comma)),
but you know what? (he was ablsolutelly right: absolutelly - end of story))
(the common thing that unite us all, it is that we have a real passion
for the details, and this is the way it should be)

i like your localization here ->
(note that the following doesn't fit exactly with the case, but here it
is it anyway):
(really, that was my deference (and which became like a game (the hard
jokes we're talking about) (usually :)) with Randy (he always wanted
everything to look like a really good proffesional work, no matter if it
was made by volunteers, so everything should be perfect :)),
but i'm quite a jazz guy :-) (if you know what i mean), so yes i make him
angry a couple of times :-))
so a little more freedom to self expressionism looks very attractive to
me, (okey this is the dada era (and if you want my opinion (is a very very
nice era), at the worst of the cases, its a very very nice way to die,
unless it catches you your own carried inner stupidity (which is what
usually happens anyway)
(oh our stupidity yes, yes, yes!!! (all is based, based on this, that's what
i think it happens, here is an another one (exaggeration):
(and which is very usefull if you look it from a practical kind of view):
i still didn't found yet better method (for the continuation or to give
a some kind of an end in the againagainagainity :)),
from (somewhat) something, very close to what the (christians mostly) describe
as kindness, or the japanese farmers describe as acceptation, or the greeks as
m.....a and so on ...,
(both-all are stupid) (but quite practical to give an END to an eternal loop)
But there is not such a thing like a kindness in our days,
(or|and)
there is no more acceptability in our times.
(which (the latter) is very very nice (if, if you ask for my opinion)
(because if ours roads will get crossed, then bingo (goto: to get the money),
because everyone came here by himself, he climbed the hill by himself,
and
he carries his own proud opinion and only his (maybe wrong but it is his)
opinion,
and ....
he do not expect or wait, from noone else to carry his opinion
(thank you i do not get it, i prefer to carry it only by myself, thanks for the
offer)
(as our ash is our ash (and we can do everything we want to do with our
ash (sorry about that, (but enough with that s...t (okey we have to accept:
we do all the same kind of s...t anyway
)))))
so its a big win, when some roads they cross with other roads, because in that
case, and at the very least and its worse case, you will have a pleasant death,
full of conscience, and then not only you will go to the next level of the game,
but you are not going alone :) (crazy nice to be exact (if you ask for my
opinion))

[again sorry: how could i forget George, how could i?
yes of course, they were a very fine pair Pierre :) of humans, to watch them to
work together, very gentle guys; george was doing a lot work with specs (i think
in the beginning he did the most, but (really), i, i, i can not really remember
(sorry)),

Yes Thomas also (of course (yes)).
Also to mention some more, as the memories coming back slowly :).
William Harrington (tones of help to support and to CLFS if i'm not
mistaken, of course Nathan (he contributed a lot at the time), also
in a time i was really unware about all these, like (also) Igor (with
never meat), or Alan and Jeremy Henty, but really are too many (sorry),
but oh jesus, OMG, how could i forget william (my willy (with a tone of
personal emails to me, like (wait for me to go find one)));
(i still have a folder with a couple of houndred mails which
survived over these years, i looked at them yesterday, kinda the same way
you look old pictures)

Hi William,
I already told to Bruce in public to revert that decision.
I don't know what else I can do.
Why is that urgency? And what about your university?
Isn't time for study?
If you give me some good and concrete reasons, maybe I could try to speak
to him in private (without promises). But I do have to have some arguments
first to represent.
Regards,
Ag.

I do hold the same opinion, when this was happened for the first time.
So I believe that Track should be open, no matter what, e.g., a user
abuses the system.

Its fine by me as far i know but i had a good deal of an interim time
(from 2010 and for four/five years), with zero priority for LFS and without
even internet access :) (so i do not know)

Yes, nice idea. (again) (please feel free (trust your self)).

Thanks again Pierre and all to the new guys that we do not know each other.
And once more to all the olds, that is impossible to mention them all, but they
have to know that, all the people in this project, where i had the best of my
luck (and it was a privilige) to cooperate, are really feeling this boring (but
so nice to give, and because it is free), this boring and invaluable thanks.
So thanks for the thanks, but enough with the thanks as we have some
nice and sweet things to do and without too much sweat
and this is thanks to us (dont ever forget that (as you are a
administrator of your own linux distribution (doesn't this makes you
feel great? :))
and a silly old poem (kidding :) (i just made it up to fit on the
occasion and the situation (wtf with this situationsim anyway latelly :)))
(it is called: the highway, the subway and the myway)
_______________________________________
Here i see the highway
Not that far away
This is the subway (can't you hear the harmonica, can't you hear the
guitar, can't you hear the Paul Simons of the world to sing?)
in the quiet of the railway station!
it is a free way (free as free beer :))
free as freedom
we can fuc.... fly away
are you ready for a ride with a pride
with just one price
(our will (as our beloved willy did it), to move our ash a bit (do not have any
expectation to cook any other else your food for you, and|or for someone to
clean up for us our own sheets: clean up them yourself (unless you can't do
it (then becomes a crime for the society if there is noone there to help this
poor guy to have some pride)) (and anyone of us can be this poor guy
(do not live with this illusion) (we are just as fragile as a fine glass
made by someone with love and fine hands) (how they call this technique? its
a french word, it sounds like decoupaz! :))))
all still looks so far far away, but i know that:
this is your way
this is my way
this is our way
refuse to die
