Who started what is a debate that could go on for eternity. The
archives are there for anyone who wants to keep score.

Blocking people is tempting but too indiscriminate for my taste. What
would be nice is a e-mail filter that filters out the flames, leaving
only the relevant content ;)

I love this analogy. It works on so many different levels.

I didn't mean to suggest everyone on this list should be on best
(cathedral) behaviour rather that, even in a bazaar, there are limits.
The odd flame war/skirmish over a technical issue is to be expected
but hijacking a thread for a personal attack is, in my view, going too
far.

In hindsight my response was more than a tad authoritarian - not a
good thing and a great example of why counting to ten before you reply
to an irritating e-mail is a good idea. Whilst the tone of my email
could certainly have been improved, and I apologise that it wasn't, I
stand by the substance that an apology is required.

Mark

No apology necessary - it was a heart-warming gesture.  Let's hope there
are many more of them this year.
