Like these guys = said they=20 do it as a volunteer effort and share with us for free. If you insulted = their country or their mother they would probably just yawn and say so what? But insult = their=20 work and it's fighten time. If Sergey wanted to contribute something he = went about it the wrong way. Now your trying to get a point across in = absolutely the wrong way too. Maybe your remark will be construed as not insulting their work and you = will=20 more or less be ignored, but then again maybe not. If you continue with = these type of rants then you better break out the Redhat disks maybe you'll = be=20 happier there. These people have long memories and when or if you really need help = with=20 something and your job or reputation is on the line, well then you kinda = burned that bridge didn't you. So please remember, even though at times these = guys sound kinda snippy, you have to remember what they are trying to deal with = is enormous. Now top that off with someone who is being obnoxious and you = get instant flame. Sergey was being obnoxious and he understands and communicates very well in english, the thread was not about language, but = about being polite and providing info if you want help. Now let's drop it and get back to work, please. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
