did I say we should moderate EVERY post? I just think that off-topic
posts that already pass through a moderation stage should be filtered
out, and a question about Oracle and Veritas should be off topic on this
list, doubly so if asked by a non-participant (in other words, it's
semi-OK if asked by someone who gives back to the list on ON-TOPIC
subjects).
If you help the community, you get unreserved help in return, if you
want to use it one-way and on off topic issues, why should we help?
there are several shades of grey in the middle, and we may need to
define them.
ok, here's my revised policy. it mentioned the word "Red Hat" and so you
saw it fit to print, I'll accept that, but I declare it's anyone's right
to respond to not, but lt's not make a thread out of it.[1]
