Quoting Luis Villa (l...@lu.is): > [1] who did not notice my "basic internet 101" subject change ;)
What I _actually_ said was that just editing the Subject header (and preferably also deleting In-Reply-To so that mailers doing real threading pick up the change) is 'Internet 101' as a method to... change the Subject header. To recap context: Mr. Kevin P. Fleming <kevin+...@km6g.us> had asserted that on mailing lists, threads cannot 'be split off into separate topics', whereas on Discourse Web-forum software, one can. I was replying to say, um, it's Internet 101 that if you want to change the subject in SMTP, you change Subject (preferably also deleting In-Reply-To) -- that doing that has a 37-year history of working in the obvious way, and also ironically that threading isn't supported at _all_ in Discourse. I found it lastingly strange to be targeted by some very strange personal rhetoric from you for saying that -- and find it suspicious that you, the main person lobbying for migration away from SMTP/mailing lists to an instance of Discourse Web-forum software hosted by a third-party corporation, are still flogging that particular deceased equine. _______________________________________________ License-discuss mailing list License-discuss@lists.opensource.org http://lists.opensource.org/mailman/listinfo/license-discuss_lists.opensource.org
