Have a nice day all :) Yep, I noticed he calmed down, but I wonder why after all those previus replies (previous to this thread), even the mail you have said you sent to him, why does he still keep using this mailing list as his personal blog? I appreciate people who tried to get involved in all the linux stuff, especially in Fedora. Writting manuals, translating things etc...but I don't understand how he tries to write a howto which is wrong and may make people to get confused when they read it (since google will index it). I do understand if he wants to write some PERSONAL documentation (as he said), but, I don't see the point in sending it to the list. I've also noticed Karl is trying to help new people here as much as he can, and that's great, but from that to write useful papers... All the best. Manuel -- Manuel Arostegui Ramirez.
