[TriLUG] What's Wrong with the Open Source/Linux Community (was Top vs Bottom posting)

[Matt Frye]

It's amazing what I miss when I'm in training for a day and not
looking at the list.  The top-vs-bottom argument is, of course,
complete fluff.  It's as meaningless as "Put the CD in it's case so
that the words are right side up."

What's worse (and I think someone pointed this out) is that we, as a
community, choose to spend time correcting each other and arguing
about such a thing.  Get with the program people.  There are larger
issues than posting style*, RFC or not.  Try channeling that energy
into something that is actually productive, like assailing emacs.  :-)

* It's more than just posting style; it's anything that causes flames.
