Well, my duty is make sure all discussions are to the best interest and to the purpose of this mailing list. When there is a better place to carry discussions which doesn't concur to the purpose of this list, I just make efforts people to understand the same. Some people take in the right way, some people get offended a bit. But, am just doing my duty ;) -- --- With Regards, Parthan "technofreak" 2FF01026 http://blog.technofreak.in -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

That is why labeled it OT. > I was stuck and thought its day time in India and had a better chance > of getting reply Well, mailing lists exists to enhance discussion and mutual help between people interested on a topic. This mailing list caters to interests related to Ubuntu. For discussing or seeking help about a particular programming language, especially when it is a very generalized, language specific and unrelated to Ubuntu questions, it is better to be asked in the mailing list catering to that particular programming language or in a wide-topic mailing lists like LUGs. It's not just because it is not ON TOPIC here, but also because the chance of [1] getting a meaningful reply, [2] involving a discussion of people having more clue about it and [3] of the question and it's reply helping people searching for the same at future instance and finding it, is more in such a mailing list than here. If you're looking for quick reply, you should rather be jumping to #python and getting it sorted out.

Thank you. Hello Parth I understand that it is not related to Ubuntu list. That is why labeled it OT. I was stuck and thought its day time in India and had a better chance of getting reply.
