Who decided? Were things so bad this had to happen? I am against it. I have not been receiving significant spam mail to my LFS account. And we only had two recent episodes of spam reaching Trac stuff. The reason I'm against it is because of the complications that may happen (Jeremy already described, and the solution is to send an email to some private address which isn't even listed, you have to kind of figure it out and hope you guess the domain name correctly; a month from know, is anyone going to have a clue what the hell that email addy was?), and Richards statement of "I also may have lost some important emails, but I'll never know". Oh well, just my two cents. However, as this was decided outside the community, by who knows, I don't expect a reply, just wanted to chime in. -- Randy rmlscsi: [bogomips 1003.23] [GNU ld version 2.16.1] [gcc (GCC) 4.0.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.6] [Linux 2.6.14.3 i686] 09:10:00 up 3 days, 14:07, 1 user, load average: 0.14, 0.20, 0.09 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
