PLBLPBLTLTPBTLT! You're polluting the list worse than the people you
are complaining about.

Hi Richard,

Two requests:
1. Please do not top post. I have noticed that a few of the new members
tend to ignore this simple list guideline. It makes it difficult to
follow the thread.
2. You have realise this list is a volunteer effort. So a thread gets
attention only if some member knows he/she can help, relates to the
problem because they have faced it personally or takes interest in
those matters. Often a thread stays unanswered for weeks and then an
interested comes along with an answer. Sometimes there are no
answers at all! As an example for the later you can take a look at
this:
<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.general/418517>
What I'm getting at is: posting to the list does not guarantee a
solution. This is the nature of a volunteer effort, and all of us
live with that. If you feel a thread deserves more attention, the
proper way to garner more attention is to post to the same thread
with any updates you might have from your searches; if there are no
updates, then you can just mention you are still stuck (as I did in
the above example).
I believe Tim was also trying to point this out. I hope this clears up
any misunderstanding you might have had.
Cheers,
