Re: [Cooker] rebutal
Is this almost over yet??? All this BS about what country is better, which one lost what war, etc, etc, etc. It is pretty sad when you have to sort messages by subject, then just delete everything that has the subject "Rebutal". I am sick of this, and if anyone else agrees, please voice your opinion too! I mean, I could be wrong, but that would assume that a Mandrake mailing list doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the software we are trying to support. If you really want to complain, head over to RedHat's mailing list and b*tch and moan there, so the rest of us civilized Linux users can carry on with what really matters. ]-[?Re§ia®Çh - Original Message - From: "Ben Reser" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 16, 2000 10:24 PM Subject: Re: [Cooker] rebutal On Sun, Oct 15, 2000 at 04:25:45PM +0200, Alexander Skwar wrote: Yes, you Americans are the best.

Private problems are better settled outside of this mailing list so this will be my last message to you about your immaturity and lack of respect posted to the Cooker list.

Not downloading the beta packages for Free! and complaining that they don't work. So... The fact that a lot of Americans might purchase Linux Mandrake means that the sole language of the distribution should be English? It's a shame that such narrow minded people still walk the planet. Did you ever notice that this (cooker) list is mostly non-sense that we not only get to read it but usually we have to read it posted several times. Not to be rude, but I often find that most of the recent nonsense is coming from [EMAIL PROTECTED] I got my 7.2beat3 working just fine (by myself), and didn't complain once about "its not working". Congrats on getting it working; however, the whole point is to get the beta stable enough that new users won't have to "get it working." The released version should work correctly right out of the box. That is the whole point in reporting any problems that we, the beta testers, have. If you happen to fix something that wasn't working it would best server everyone if you would write a mail to the list explaining what was wrong and how you fixed it.

Re: [Cooker] rebutal
Not going to include anyones text in this... I'm an American with German roots and after spending several weeks in Germany I can say that it is truly a wonderful place. Actually I spent a month in Europe in 7 different countries and loved every one of them. SO... Lets not bicker about the past and let's just work on the future of this great distro. ;) That's my pep talk for the year... LOL
Re: [Cooker] rebutal
Hey, I'll admit it. I was one to write back to Heir Doktor off the list. I didn't think it was necessary to fill the list with flame mail. I think it falls under the concept of netiquette (taking a flamefest off-list that is). I can't speak any languages other than English, but I'm not going to go off on other Linux users for not learning my language. I also did NOT see anything on the Mandrake page stating that this list was English only. Heir Doktor, if you'd like to see a language specific mailing lists, I suggest you write to MandrakeSoft directly requesting the creation of Cooker-en, Cooker-es, Cooker-ru, Cooker-ch, Cooker-fr, etc. Until then, I suggest you get over your language bigotry and remember just how big and yet small this Earth really is. My apologies to the list for decreasing the signal/noise ratio of this list with this post. Anything further I have to say on this subject will be sent to Mikey directly, which he can feel free to filter straight to /dev/null for all I truly care.
