Hi Mark,

Not sure if you worked for a newspaper before but please quote me
correctly if you feel it's your responsibly to apply some ethics to this
group.

My posting said :

A) "Thanks David" .. Meaning  " I do appreciate your posting"
B) "I feel more comfortably". Implying that I would prefer to be talking
to "his" customers. He said, he has many customers. 

Never said : " I do not trust you " and never thought I would have to
correct English grammar interpretations by somebody working for Novell.

So, you post a question to this mailing list, asking for information
about people using MySQL on mainframe Linux.  You get some answers, but
feel compelled to reply to David in public "you appear to be a vendor,
so I don't trust what you have to say."  In what way is that
constructive?  You're entitled to think anyway you like, but the group
norms of this mailing list tend towards being pretty polite to each
other.  Unless you've got a good reason to question someone's integrity
in public, just don't, at least not here.
