I couldn't agree more. I note that some of these (at best) unhelpful and (at worst) objectionable responses are from the very person suggesting the discussion is moved to the offtopic list. I have no problem with long-winded, unhelpful threads on offtopic, but I do object to the suggestion that those of us who *do* want to be helpful are prevented from doing so when the question being asked is in an area that others find controversial. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
