Wake up, Sudir. Jim just posted a few days ago that he was tired of the
off-topic posts that have been predominating on the list recently.
Yesterday he pointed out the off-topic nature of the Ubuntu thread. You
then posted 3 times on the very topic he declared off base. I forwarded
you his post declaring Ubuntu off-topic. Now you have broken the list
rules of etiquette by posting private mail from me to the list without
my permission.
Here is a link to the rules of etiquette for your review.

The rules of the list are not set or enforced by me, you, or consensus.
They are set by the list administrator.
