C'mon Curtis, that's an over reaction. Jonathan's post was quite civil. The signal to noise ratio on this list has improved dramatically since the news chatter was taken elsewhere, plus people like me have been able to remove filters on some email addresses, like Fred's and yours. Having the separate news list seems to be working out fine; don't rock the boat by deliberately posting OT to the SuSE list.
Stop whinning and take a hike, one freaking post and the malcontents come crawling out of the word work. For crying out loud stop trolling and chill out. The other list was done as a courtesy by Christian. If you don't like it filter my email address. It's been well over a couple of months since an OT post. Get a life!!! Talk about rude. I only posted it since it has relavance to the OS market and especially in light of the financial belt tightening at SuSE. I'd think one simple post about this subject matter wouldn't send the more stoic SLE users into an apopletic fit. Guess I was wrong. Sorry I annoyed you. Don't worry I won't post again. But, IMHO ppl such as yourself have done a lot to kill the spirit that brought me and others to the list in the 1st place - shame. Have a good night.

That's what that list was set up for -- to keep these sorts of mails off the SuSE list.
People who are interested in not-quite-OT posts can easily subscribe to that list by sending an empty message to lx-talk-subscribe@big7.net
