weird. dont forget that the said 20 subscribers also provide 90% of
the activity on the list. I was under the impression that in the foss
world, contribution is more important than numbers. It is only those
that contribute that feel the problem of no reply-to munging
i will go with pedantics over
practicality.
which was the reason why our public sector, for example, spent the
the first 50 years of independance making huge losses and keeping our
country down. I personaly feel that the inactive majority should not
be allowed to dictate to the active minority. Imagine listening to
people who cant be bothered to vote. One suggestion, why dont you
poll those 1500 people and ask them this question: 'all those who
want reply-to munging not to be implemented, please reply, failing
which it will be turned on'. Would you be willing to abide by the
decision of the silent majority then?
