Well I wonder whether I want to get in here… I am assuming you are genuinely asking and I am correspondingly answering: When you tell someone to get out -- 'to stop posting' is kind of equivalent to that -- you dont leave much scope for dialogue :-) I see that you asked him some 6-7 times before that. So I am not really blaming you for what you did. Just trying to suggest that those half-dozen times could have been louder and more detailed before saying: Please go away from here! Also others (Alister?) were double-space-reply-posting as well. When you mean to point out a behavior without getting personal, it helps to point out all instances of that behavior. Otherwise it looks like you are going for someone, when in fact you are going against something. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
