Thats why you cut everything but the relevant text to get a clue what the thread is about. If a posting is only meant for those who are actively involved and if there is no need to archive the thread, then it might be considered if it is better to post outside a public mailing-list. > Life sucks and then you die.

Either we all top-post or we all inline-post. -- Natanael Copa -- gentoo-embedded@gentoo.org mailing list
