There is at least one other sub group around here who value generally quiet sober support when they have a problem. Ubuntu and many other distros are quality distros, and perhaps better support what some people want. But the Ubuntu and Fedora mailing lists and support are unbelievably noisy and getting help often (usually?)requires rhinoceros hide and extreme persistence. This very mailing list which is getting defiled by this pointless discussion is what I value about SL. This list is mercifully seldom sullied by trolls. And the SL distro itself is competent and has what I need, a few smart people supporting me on the mailing list and reasonably timely updates. So, every time I even think of moving I slap myself across the face and go do something important.{^_^} Joanne
^^ this. I seldom post to the -users list - as most of my stuff is more related to the -devel list.
That being said, I'm glad I don't get 200 emails a day through this list, and would be happy to see the off topic drivel stop so we can go back to focussing on actual problems - not constructed problems about a false understanding of lack of choice.
