    SubjectRe: Defective Red Hat Distribution poorly represents Linux
    To Charles:
    I see your intentions but you really want to take this up with Redhat
    and some linux advocacy groups. linux-kernel really doesnt need to deal
    with things like gcc being broken and such (which I don't think is your
    case; check your hardware -- my reason? I've deployed RH 6.2 on 20 or
    so server, all scsi, without a hitch. also signal 11 points to memory
    problems).

    To list:
    Could we please come across to users a little more politely? I know its
    frustrating when people come barging in complaining about something that
    really should be directed somewhere else. But it's heck of alot better
    if we don't have a user that later thinks 'Damn, linux developers are
    meanies' and then are afraid to ask us questions later which wuld
    probably be useful for us. I'm not saying I was right by simply blowing
    off Charles by telling him this is the wrong list. I should have pointed
    him in the right direction and given quick pointers.
