I imagine if help were needed, they'd ask for it. We definitely are aware. I even told the list a week or two ago that this is going to happen more and more. Those are now coming thru to the list because I decided to let even lines looking like majordomo commands to get thru. Perhaps I could block AUTH lines. This was done because several messages per week got rejected when they contained lines smelling too much like Majordomo commands. > So why don't we stay on-topic and let the signal:noise ratio rise a > little above the usual for a change, okay? > > Cheers, > Bill /Matti Aarnio - 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/
