If I know nothing about the subject, I keep my mouth shut. Hey, what is this? Are you trying to make me look like an idiot?? Oh! Did I do that? > You know, I considered a smart-ass answer about whether David Robinow > had read all of Larry Hall's email. ... I plead no contest. I skimmed it. In any case I don't believe Larry has been following his own rules. His posts have been driving me crazy for a long time and I finally flipped. I think he's the primary cause of this long conversation "about the list" rather than "about Cygwin". There I've said it. It's clear from the other responses that nobody agrees with me (in particular Chris Faylor doesn't agree with me) so I'll shut up about this issue from now on. (Yes, I know what kill files are for.) -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
