RE: OT



I totally agree..... Stop pushing your views on to us!!!!! Sign up to a
political, or religious mailing list instead....

I do not need to hear these issues....

Look, guys -- you know who you are -- I (and others, most likely)
don't mind OT topics from time to time, and I/we can pretty easily
delete without reading, should I/we wish to do so. A certain amount is
tolerable, and I/we grant some slack because self-expression can be a
learning experience.

But: a fair number of posts reveal that the authors have quite a
shallow grasp of politics. Worse, many are written from an adolescent
ego-centered intent to prevail, even though there's no worthwhile
content added.

Think of it this way: would you like to have to wade through the views
of AOL members eager to vindicate their opinions about open source
software?

So give us a break, and instead of political drivel, get back to your
usual smart and insightful comments about Debian? Please?


I agree with you upon this !!!

I've even considered to put the writers of political issues on my spamlist !

This is the wrong forum to debate this !!

What I dont want in my inbox, is mails that contains political and religious
issues.

Of course I can drop out of this list if I dont want to discuss it, but then
where should I go to get help with Debian related stuff ?? Anyone ??
