Sorry, q, but I'm not ready to end the discussion, despite your

You ignored this comment, which is, I think, critical. Charles said
"please don't post...". Charles did not say "never post...". The
former is a request. The latter is a directive. If Charles had given a
directive, your reaction *might* have been justified.

Such zone file excerpts should be prefaced with an apology. If no
apology is included, offenders should not be surprised if people point
out their faux pas.
>Noone should say: "please don't post BIND zonefiles to Dan's lists".
Who is Noone, and why should he repeat Charles' request?
