FROM LIST ADMIN - Re: Ubuntu Ubuntu Ubuntu

[Gavin Hemphill]

Chris - as I said to the first guy - take a pill
relax the world will still come out alright.

And it is USEFUL to have people talk about other distributions on this 
list - most of the newbies don't have the experience to go looking for 
other distributions - or to appreciate when another distribution may be 
more appropriate.

As a long time Yellodog supporter (I distinctly remember suggesting that 
a way was needed for people to contribute to yellodog without buying the 
distribution - hence yellogdog enhanced).  I find your response offensive.
