You Have Made A Gross Mistake By Adding freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org To The CC List Of The Private Mail I Sent You & about 6 others :-( freebsd-hackers list has ~300 to ~500 hackers The charter of the list may be obtained by echo info freebsd-hackers | mail majordomo@freebsd.org The people may be counted by echo who freebsd-hackers | mail majordomo@freebsd.org They saw the original announcement, & likely won't welcome your lightly edited return of the mega article with odd comments here & there. I copied the 2.0.5 announcement to a select group of those of my friends who were at my Birthday party, who asked about the CD & T-Shirts, plus you & a couple of other potentially interested people, these ~6 or 7 people were on the temporary list on my host freebsd-cd@vector.eikon.e-technik.tu-muenchen.de I ever expected you to CC this to hundreds of people on freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org In fact I have myself just recently unsubscribed freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org simply because of the volume & signal/noise ratio. I can only apologise to freebsd-hackers & say Pete's CC of private stuff, + Mega 2.0.5 anoncement you'd all seen before, was completely unexpected ! I will not even attempt to deal with other points & misunderstandings in the content of the mail, as this cross posted thread should die Fast ! I am not responsible for this, sorry folks.
