First, someone gets an e-mail saying that your message "waits for moderator's approval". Then you get a message saying that your "message was rejected by the moderator because you are not subscribed to the list". Mind it, those were bug reports, not spam. I took your beta code, tested it, saw real bugs and problems and wrote bug reports BECAUSE YOU INCOURAGE PEOPLE TO DO SO AND GIVE THOSE EMAILS IN THE DOCUMENTATION!!! There is no place in the source tree docs that say the list is moderated. It it had said so, I would have not wasted my time. I felt really pissed off for waisting my time. BTW, other e-mails given in the documentation just bounce. If you do not want people sending bug reports, update your documentation. It is not polite to make people waste their time! -- ---------------------------------------- Constantine Gavrilov Linux Leader Optibase Ltd 7 Shenkar St, Herzliya 46120, Israel Phone: (972-9)-970-9140 Fax: (972-9)-958-6099 ---------------------------------------- - 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/
