Again, I fail to see what this has to do with FreeBSD-stable. This is your second official warning. On the next offense, you will be banned forever from all FreeBSD mailing lists. I don't care whether you were responding to other people or not, you are solely responsible for your own behavior and so far, it's not meeting even the most minimum standards we have here. Again, this is your second and last warning in compliance with the mailing list charters. - Jordan From: Sung Nae Cho <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: FreeBSD needs to awake and come out of SERVER only market!
