I didn't mean to stir up a ruckus
Not your fault at all. I know that Dag often monitors this list and on occasions when he can't/doesn't get stuff resolved at the rpmforge site/list, he'll generously help out right from this list.
But he has posted at rpmforge list about how swamped he is. Logic would indicate that a faster response might be had there. My assumption was that you either didn't know about his mailing list or forgot about it. So I just wanted to suggest it to you. I seldom (never?) intend to be condescending or harsh in my posts (resist the urge, resist the urge, ... oh well, the hell with it: unlike some others ;-)
Unfortunately, the desire for brevity on lists often allows a lot of latitude for interpreting posts as harsh.
The ruckus came when some folks apparently interpreted your post differently than I and decided that I deserved castigation.
Their problem, not mine.
Thanks for the help
I do hope that my original reply was seen as intended - helpful.
