You mentioned QImage lists forbidding the discussion of certain topics? You didn't really explicitly state that they forbade the discussion of release dates but I assume this is so. I have my example list to the contrary, namely MDaemon beta. Beta release date queries are quite frequent. They're never shouted down and are almost always replied to by one of the *busy* Mdaemon development team members .... and yes.. the queries may not be single and invariably appear again when an *unusually* long time has passed since the last query with no beta forthcoming. No fussing there at all. I am really perplexed by this repeated string of miserable responses to queries. Especially when it's not from the developers, the ones expected to respon; the ones who as far as I know, have never requested not to be asked such questions. Repeated queries about technical aspects appear and are answered. No one gets miserable about the repetitions and yet for some reason, beta release date queries are not to be repeated? Guys ... I'm sorry, but as a veteran member, I can't sing along with that chorus and feel sympathy for Avi who has experienced and injustice here. -- .. . . | IMAP Client: The Bat!™ v3.0.2.5 _.||* _ |\/| | IMAP Server: MDaemon Pro (_]|||(/,____| | | OS: Windows XP Pro (Service Pack 2) .....
