Doug, if you reread my post you will notice that I am not fanatical about any single form of communication and quite openly acknowledged the work done by other people in other communication venues. All you are doig is re-iterating my point : different people have different needs and uses. Some are here on the list since thats what works for them and the lists come with some guidelines. We ( the CentOS Project ) expect users in these lists to make an effort to adhere to these rules and guidelines. I see nothing unreasable in that whatsoever. Anyway, as has already been said quite a few times - if the lists dont work for you, leave. Subscription info is included in each email sent from the list. -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219 at icq
