I appreciate the responses thus far. As I am becoming aware, this list has those who are capable of tact and professionalism, and those who have some growing up to do. Gregory's response is part of the former category, and I greatly appreciate the advice of those who had some to give. For those who would spoute uselessness in an untactful way, we know who you are, including the fact that you often write to this list with issues that do not directly pertain to the Speakup package, wasting everyone's time who have to sort through the junk. But by putting your name out there with a response that concerns only your poor distaste for the annoyingness of my suggestion without consideration as to why I suggested it, you've earned yourself a reputation.. However, your response was nonetheless considered, Tyler. Regards: Adam MacLeod ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gregory Nowak" To: "Speakup is a screen review system for Linux."
