Why this questions ?
You should subscribe to other mailing lists, for example
gcc, bug-gnu-utils, sh-utils, autoconf, etc ...
You will find, by comparaison, that Mr Zaretskii(Eli)
spend only a small percentage of his time on Usenet, when
you see the volume of mail that others parse and generate.

IMO, it is of bad style to name directly someone in the subject
of widely open medium such as usenet.  It carries negative polarity ;-)

8-), sure I'm the biggest fan, although I don't know much about DOS and
DJGPP, my excursions to this newsgroup have mostly been pleasing.
