What's odd is your assuming that I'm an FSF board member. Especially when there's a URL just next to it that explains what FSFLA is, and how it's not the FSF, but rather one of four members of the network of FSFs. > I also fail to see (or at least wonder at) how a board member of the > FSF can state that he's not associated with the FSF... hmm, the mind > boggles.. Yeah, it's really hard to clarify broken assumptions and jumping to conclusions. >> Red Hat Compiler Engineer aoliva@{redhat.com, gcc.gnu.org} > Same thing for the RedHat bit here, along with posting from a > @redhat.com email addr. Why would this convey the impression that I'm speaking on behalf of Red Hat, tell me. It doesn't even say I'm president, CEO, PR manager, press contact or any such thing... If I posted from my ISP e-mail address, would you assume I was speaking for the ISP? -- Alexandre Oliva http://www.lsd.ic.unicamp.br/~oliva/ FSF Latin America Board Member http://www.fsfla.org/ Red Hat Compiler Engineer aoliva@{redhat.com, gcc.gnu.org} Free Software Evangelist oliva@{lsd.ic.unicamp.br, gnu.org} - 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/
