You keep missing the main point. which is not whether or not people without knowledge _should_ be running servers, but that they _are_, will continue to be whether or not we support them, and can't be prevented from doing so. All of your arguments against providing the tools to support them are arguments in favour of allowing them to continue to use bad tools, to create badly configured servers, from Microsoft. -- derek -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
