[snip] To just add to Martin's post: I read slug for fun, enjoyment and education, contribute when I believe that I can make a contribution. I don't want a sanitized list. I don't want multiple 'topic' lists. Opinions, even heretical heated ones, are part of life. Flame wars are a pain. If you change the format too much, like Puff, I'll sadly go to my cave James -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
