Subject: "ethical" postings to list [was Re: how to hide the VNC logo ?]


<gripe>
The way I see it, this list is for anything concerning VNC, whether it be
the ethical considerations faced by installing a program that lets you
remotely access a computer, or the technical functionality of VNC.  It is
all to do with VNC and so to me seems perfectly relevant to this list.

I don't know where you get off thinking you can tell people what to post to
the list, I don't see anything saying "list admin" in your name, or "VNC
technical supervisor".  I haven't seen a single complaint from anybody of
"authority" (by authority I mean a list admin or moderator) compalining
about "These *ethical* and *hypothetical* posts" that you only seem to think
have no place on this list.
