Hi Phill, It was correct to tell me I was doing wrong, but it could have been more diplomatic. Maybe other people were also angry, and complained to you, and made you swing the axe ;-)
But don't worry. I will keep working with Ubuntu flavour software to help running middle-aged and old computers. I intend to supply information, that can be posted at the Lubuntu wiki, and I really think it is better to only supply such information and stay away from editing the wiki pages.
