You know, I really don't see the need for having stereo types labeled in an email such as this. I would have done something more along the lines of "hey, there's this app called X and it may seem inapprioate to other people. Here is the link for it, if you have issues me adding it, please let me know." But no, you had to use some uneeded stereo typical phrases to catch people's attention. What did this gain you? You had to have known it would stir up people. Tell me the logic of doing it this way, I fail to see what it gains other than people upset with you. --=20 Lance Albertson Gentoo Infrastructure | Operations Manager --- GPG Public Key: Key fingerprint: 0423 92F3 544A 1282 5AB1 4D07 416F A15D 27F4 B742 ramereth/irc.freenode.net --=-iXc2j+ApdXFcysRozBSX Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBCIkyjQW+hXSf0t0IRAiyuAKCNbElEIIaMm4P+LN5mYokcrtK82gCgyaUJ 7QyeyfSQplQvsULgJlh4qZA= =rTSp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-iXc2j+ApdXFcysRozBSX-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
