Hi, Isn't the abusive language and attitude used by Miguel good reason to ban him/her from this group? Although it was taken as humorous in the beginning, it seems that a lot of users were put off by his message.

Hi Alan, I do apologize for the outburst in the mailing list over the weekend. But he's succeeded in pushing my buttons. I do recommend though, that you read over the entirety of the thread / message in question, and not just my response to "Miguel." He has been making warrant-less threats, accusations, and demands since early Saturday. I tried being polite out of respect for the mailing list. That being said, I resent greatly labeling of me in the way that he has, and merely wished to be overly blunt to demonstrate that I could have posted far worse, far earlier, however had exhibited restraint due to the fact that this -is- a public mailing list. Though, what I'd posted was more from frustration than anything else. Once again, I apologize for -my- behavior. - Robert On Mon, 2009-05-04 at 10:16 +0100, a.l.m.bu...@lboro.ac.uk wrote: Hi, > No. I was trying to be polite, <snip> excuse me? This is a general open public mailing list for OpenSSL. this sort of abusive language has no place here - its read by a mixture of professional, non-professional, adults, children, researchers, computer users etc. foul language has its place in other, more appropriate locations. please take some responsibility and be responsible I can see no purpose of this silly thread other than to disrupt an otherwise useful and normal mailing list. alan ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
