Theo has been back for a day already. and like the rest of a lot of us, is trying to get a test and release cycle out the door to ship a release - that means we have better things to do than entertain misc@ by responding to Wim's idiotic bullshit.
Wanna help? go install snapshots on as many different things as you can and tell us if you see any problems. That's a much more useful activity than watching misc@ for trolls. Pop popcorn with the waste heat of all the machines you are spinning up. On 16 August 2010 10:46, Bryan Irvine <sparcta...@gmail.com> wrote: > Will someone warn me 2 minutes before Theo gets back?
