Hmmm, Josselin, I share with you an open mind over many things (and yet, you'd be surprised at the prejudices you have, that only someone from another culture can point out). Even in the odd days when I feel all superior, I realise that it's not for everyone, and that different cultures have their own pace, and their own direction. And I respect them, if I am in a multicultural forum, I watch my mouth. The mission of Debian is not "spot the bigot". Debian embraces people of many beliefs, customs and ways of life under one shared belief -- about an OS. cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
