I seriously doubt that Theo sells any cd more because of ComixWall. And sale of cds is what ultimately counts as "promoting OpenBSD". I can't find Tari's name on http://www.openbsd.org/donations.html, nor can I find a link to there from http://comixwall.org While I applaud him for his effort and think this is a great thing, he hides OpenBSD quite well. > Anyway, since the advocascy list is dead, the two > announcements to misc should not be censured in such a harsh > way. Indeed. I applaud Theo for implementing a zero-tolerance-for-spam policy on the mailing lists. :-) > I still hope this issue can be settled in a NON-DESTRUCTIVE > way. Same here. The efforts of Comixwall should be folded into OpenBSD. >> (*) And easy. :-))) Best Martin
