Thank you so much for this mail. I would have been very disappointed |
24 |
if this discussion had continued wasting everyone's time, bandwidth |
25 |
and inbox space. From where I'm sitting, Ciaran's tirades have been a |
26 |
complete waste from every angle. I know I represent the feelings of |
27 |
the entire Gentoo community when I say this. |

I hope he takes a hint from this email, but somehow I know he won't. |
