Thanks but no thanks for the blind hate demonstration. if you cared to look into the attachment you would find it was: 1. plain text, usable by anyone without a machine parser 2. contained useful information, ready to be dragged into a bookmark as a link, even with an age field. useful and informative, but invented by Mikisoft and not compatible with pine. that does not make it evil. I used it from my MUTT and was very happy to see that open source and software equality were on the platform of a social (and not too political) party in our country. Stop and think before you curse, please. And Thanks for the URL, Gili! Quite a few people on the list are working on raising the issues of Open Source in our parliament, I'm glad it's echoing somewhere. linking to a bit in a party's platform that discusses IT and Open Source is definitely on topic. However linking to my girlfriend's website so she can sell more cakes isn't on topic. if you need explanations why, please contact me off list. Don't start a flame thread about this issue here. -- Shameless Plugger: http://big-nishnush.site.co.il/ Ira Abramov http://ira.abramov.org/email/ This post is encrypted twice with ROT-13.
