Hi Everybody ! Stephane, from Quebec city, I must confess : I'm a frequent lurker on this list. :-) Appreciating each kind word or gift exchanged or question asked. I am a partisan of the saying "if you don't have anything relevant to tell... Then shut your mouth" :-) I often evaluate my expériences in OS not relevant enough to answer . I must also confess that this is the shy, humble guy in me that talks and takes control... :-)
Thanks for this post that lead to a little introspection :-) Have a nice day !
