The usual place is <http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/potato/main/disks-powerpc>, as I have said on almost every post related to boot floppies until fairly recently, and is documented in a couple thousand places. > Those "in the know on debian-ppc" either have the worst habits for > posting to > archived and searchable mailing lists I have ever encountered > or else you are going out of your way to make the > information accessible to only a few select people who are > "in the know."

I don't want a personal and private response. > If you can't say it to everyone, I don't want to hear it! I have no objection to saying it to everyone. If I was going to answer you at all I would CC it to the list. But everyone that replies to you gets a bounce message. That is obnoxious and exceptionally bad etiquette. > Or is this really a private club and a private eMail address is just the > first of the many unwritten rules for joining? No, some sort of valid - private or otherwise - email address is the unwritten rule of posting to any mailing list or sending mail to any individual. > Sorry for the RANTING And for once in my life, I will not forgive you the ranting. Show a little courtesy, or I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one to just not bother answering you any more.
