For once I tend to agree, this link is so OT as to be on a different planet, (I am not too certain how an Arkansas child support court case is relevant to anything penguin shaped) but I am not prepared to set my self up as some sort of list vigilante on this issue. There does come a point when this kind of vigilante evangelism is potentially more irritating than the original post...
Maybe we need new list, opensuse-soapbox.org anyone... :-)
Maybe we just need for people to respect the intended function of the list. In the early days transgressors were dealt with swiftly, harshly and in great volume; remember the therm aoler. Today, it seems to be "someone else's job". Until people recognize the lack of order (proper use of the list), the "useless mess of [OT] posting" will continue. The "community meeting place" was designated opensuse-project. Offtopic is opensuse-offtopic. Opensuse@opensuse.org is for the discussion of technical issues dealing with the installation and maintenance of openSUSE. You do not urinate in the street (I hope), you use the provided facilities. -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 OpenSUSE Linux http://en.opensuse.org/ Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
