Hi, dcoutts. Another Duncan! =8^) |
10 |
|
11 |
I'm not a Gentoo dev (yet?), but I /am/ a regular on the list, and use |
12 |
"Duncan" both here and on bugzilla as 1i5t5.duncan@×××.net, tho the 1i5t5 |
13 |
can change when the address starts getting to much spam, and of course |
14 |
the domain can change. A namespace clash agreement might be beneficial. <g> |
15 |
|
16 |
If you have no strong preference, dcoutts would maintain the distinction. |
17 |
I have a preference, but you are the developer while I'm just a user, so |
18 |
if you prefer "Duncan", I'll look for something else. (FWIW, Duncan is my |
19 |
surname, but "John" is my first name, and I always put it this way.. |
20 |
There's always too many johns around -- unless you need one. <g> Thus, |
21 |
I've used Duncan both in meatspace and on the net for a number of years. |
22 |
Surprisingly, perhaps, just plain "Duncan" has clashed less than John |
23 |
Duncan or jduncan did. Maybe I should now be "Freedomware Duncan"? <g>) |
