Er. No one (at least that I can see in the thread) mentioned canceling privileges. Also, for the pedant in all of us, the FAQ (http://trilug.org/faq/) covers what appropriate content for the mailing list is. 1) This is *NOT* a Linux only list, it's F/OSS, so not everything has to be Linux related. 2) The FAQ states that OT is going to happen, and we should just learn to deal. (Note that both Tanner and I and Jim Ray and Joseph Mack and others have now violated this) 3) if we'd all just been quiet about what's appropriate, the thread would have died, and we wouldn't have had anything to get upset about.
