Doug, Boo seems to be interesting, and that's despite your insistence. If it is "virtually identical" or not is largely besides the point. Of course, you have to right the say it, as your personal opinion, whenever you wish. > I already stated that I will not mention boo again, to comply with > Fredrik's wishes and yours.

At this point you crossed the line, and it was not even a fine one. It is largely off the mark. First, because having "trollers" (sic) to be accountable is not possible - unfortunately. But also, because nobody is intimidating you. More than once people have tried to call you to reason, and you keep bashing people here quite gratuitously. Doug: If anyone is fearing debate here, is you. Disagreement is natural. Be prepared for it, specially if you want to spend time evangelizing people on how great Boo is. And, as Aahz has pointed out before, please don't be afraid of spam and insert a real email address so we can at least direct our responses to you. -- Carlos Ribeiro Consultoria em Projetos blog: http://rascunhosrotos.blogspot.com blog: http://pythonnotes.blogspot.com mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
