wow - guess I tripped your trigger

If you look at

You will see Dave Jones from Red Hat say much the same thing (and
specifically about offering invites for gmail on this list.

With respect to your personal sniping at me for pointing out what should
be - but apparently isn't obvious to you, offers for things like gmail,
tupperware, amway products and other viral marketing items simply can't
be tolerated as it would pollute this list if unchecked.

I don't aspire to be list nazi as you put it. Just trying to promote
common sense. If you don't like my posts, I suggest that you take a dose
of your own medicine and delete my posts...or I suppose you can offer
more glimpses into your exploding psyche as demonstrated above.
