I did not propose that as a signature. I only put that there to show
how offensive my personal position could be to others. The point I was
trying to make is that politics has no place in the Linux community.
Who really cares here on the Gentoo Users List what another's personal
politics are? I don't want my perception of another list member to be
clouded by personal feelings regarding his beliefs. As far as I see,
Linux is apolitical. If Sadam himself posted a Gentoo related question,
I would expect myself and others to answer him with all the courtesy I
would answer George Bush (or the Pope, but let's not go there)
