What response would be "diplomatically useful" and, providing you have a better response, why didn't you "diplomatically" advise the poster the proper channel for his post? I cite a partial quote from a respected member of this list: <quote> Date: Mon, 21 May 2007 17:24:04 +0200 From: Pascal Bleser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [...] The opensuse@opensuse.org list is already unusable for anything besides pointless off-topic discussions.
