Well said Linda!
while I often disagree with Richard and his presentation, I do agree that this list is not for general comentary, randing, raving and comparing physical appendages. it is for discussion of and solving technical problems *related* *only* with openSUSE distribution(s). there comes a time when sometimes drastic measures are necessary to come back to point, and this quite well might be that time.
we are supposed to be helping one another, not making criticism merely for the sake of criticism. constructive criticism is needed. you don't have to agree with the decisions or the path, but if you do not contribute to push that path in the direction you believe is correct, YOU HAVE NO VOICE.
we have set standards to be followed for the PRIVILEGE to post here but sadly fail to follow them. one's personal preferences do no rise above the standards the group has set. (multi-list posts, top posting, full quoting, off-topic, long footers, ....)
what would you do to channel this forum in the intended direction?
I agree with the direction Richard (and Gertjan Lettink supports) has set!
