What you don't understand sir, is this list gets probably 10 of these a day. I know you have to get them too, because you are on the list. Therefore, you should be getting about ten copies of this link a day. I think that is all that the gentleman was trying to say. It may just be me, but I don't see the "snobbiness" people keep complaining about. We are professionals here to help people. We are donating our time, to help each other, and help people get into Open Source Software. While this list may have a snob reputation, it should also have the reputation of the place t come for answers as well.
