Hi Nikos, actually I think Miguel may of been trying to find what pushed people's buttons and also offend or annoy as many people in the process, he/she did it a couple of years ago on a Debian mailing list also.. If anyone wants info on this just go to: http://whijo.net/geek-tags/miguel-ghobangieno
IMHO: He/She needs to grow up and stop acting like a little brat. regards Dennis --- On Tue, 5/5/09, Nikos Balkanas <nbalka...@gmail.com> wrote: > From: Nikos Balkanas <nbalka...@gmail.com> > Subject: Re: I want you to do my homework for me. > To: openssl-users@openssl.org > Received: Tuesday, 5 May, 2009, 3:30 AM > > > > > > > > Hi, > > Isn't the abusive language and > attitude used by Miguel good > reason to ban him/her from this group?
