Dave's comment was that I don't start the wars, which is probably true. I tend to respond to attacks, not go looking for fights. I'd be curious to know when it is that you think I've started a flame fest here, Alan. I'm here for two reasons, I like OS topics and I want to support BK. That latter one is a problem, the same character traits which make me want to help people when they have problems are the ones that make me participate in the BK flames. If the kernel community is ready to operate on a lower level of support from us, I'll bow out. It hasn't been pleasant being here for the last couple of years and I'd prefer to be gone. -- --- Larry McVoy lm at bitmover.com http://www.bitmover.com/lm - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
