Joerg, please, for the love of all that is holy and small furry animals, let it go. The OP asked a question about why a virtual has a certain default. I answered with the obvious answer which has to do with the point of view of the maintainer (who is not me). I said nothing about what I think in the matter, and I won't as it is in no way relevant.

I'm not starting anything. See above. As a token of respect for all the work you have done for many years with optical media and for your impressive level of coding competence, I am not going to fight with you and will instead simply ask you to drop this now. You have been given an audience here, you have been granted ample and fair opportunity to state your position and you have done so. No-one reading this list for the last fortnight is in any doubt about your point of view. Some agree with you, some don't. -- Alan McKinnon alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
