If you shoose to read this list via usenet or other gateways, the burden is on you to do any conceptual shifts necessary.

You should expect to be killfiling a lot of Debian developers then. -- see shy jo, slrn maintainer for Debian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
