I don't think I am being unreasonably hostile. Hostile yes, unreasonably so, no. I freely admit that I am being hostile, because you are defending collateral damage from an action that has no actual benefit and does not help solve the problem. Getting uol.com.br customers to react could have been achieved by other ways; hurting them is unlikely to get them to co-operate. > Posting to -devel already brings one a certain amount of spam. > Anything that reduces that will make posting to -devel more > attractive and help improve communication in the project. Kicking people off Debian lists without proper reason is really, really bad for the project. Much worse than a single autoresponse message that is easy to filter off, until it can be stopped. > I'm unsure whether this blacklisting is the best way to deal Anand's message only talked about unceremonicous unsubscriptions, not blacklisting. > Happily, not my decision to make: don't flame me for it. You're happy to defend other people being hurt, so hey, it should be fine to hurt you, Mark. But whatever, I think it's better if I don't try to talk to you anymore. It's obviously unproductive for either of us. -- I think, therefore I am alone in the universe. -- Over the Hedge -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
