I greatly appreciate the work that you, and the others at Fedora do every day. Truly I do. I just bothers me when the zealots and purists can not see that what 'feeds' takes precedent over ideals. there are many of us. It is 'really cool' the be a 'Linux person', a zealot, until it does not put the 'bread' on the table. Rant. Rave. Stomp your feet and scream all that you want to. When it come to my kids? Hungry for a 'cause' loses to reality every time. I use what works to provide the bread. -- David -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
