garbage. you went out of your way to be offensive. to quote the opening line of your message: "Excuse me. I work for TurboLinux." the implication here is that you know what you are talking about because you work for a "real" (i.e. commercial) linux distribution. anyone should be able to guess that that particular attitude is not going to go down well in debian-devel. it's akin to saying that proprietary software is better because the programmers get paid to write it (and, by logical extension, that free software authors are just amateur bumblers). i find posturing based on your employer to be particularly annoying - it's a blatant attempt to cash in on borrowed status. it doesn't work that way here, it's not who you work for that's important, it's what you've done. > It is my hope that Craig Sanders reads this and thinks about what he > has done and why. very little of what i write is done without review and consideration of the effect of my words. i am a very deliberate writer. i presume that others are just as deliberate. if they're not, then they need to learn more caution and control over the language they use. craig -- craig sanders
