You know, I have to say that this idea of the
you-changed-something-and-now-I-don't-love-you-anymore stuff is just for
kids, and I hope Kai doesn't read one bit into it.

Please don't pout and go to another distro .....just go quietly.

Or stay and respectfully make the case for keeping the ML.

Okay, back to work for me.

Yes.  Because I will not look at a forum.  Not because I'm bigoted, but
because I'm *busy* and don't have time to fool around with checking a
forum every so often.  If I have a problem I like having the ability to
email my peers and get info quickly on my desktop where and when I need
it.  Without that perk, YDL looses a good deal of usefulness so switching
to another distro is probably what's called for for me.
