If this is true, then this means that the moderator of "announce", for 386bsd, no longer supports 386bsd. 2) If the moderator does not support 386bsd and supports another Operating System in it's place then he is in conflict-of-interst. 3) By posting the FAQ to 386bsd the moderator will show his support for 386bsd. If he does this, it means that "the claim to not posting" is not evidence to show that he is acting with a conflict-of-interest. 4) However, posting the FAQ will point to the contradiction in terms coming from the moderator. Namely it shows that he will do things only on his terms and not in the interest of 386bsd. This shows another conflict-of-interest. 5) Further evidence to this is the fact that the moderator was ignoring the articles sent to him, even after acknowledging their existance. This shows an irresponsible action on his part and possibly a conflict of interest. 6) Not accepting the articles without editorial modifications is a conflict-of-interest. The moderator is, by the charter, to deny or accept the articles based on their contents not his prejudices. 7) By stating that the articles may be of a less than trustworthy nature the moderator shows that his he is not accepting article based on their contents, but on his merit. This shows a further conflict-of-interst. ___________________________________________________________________________ Jesus Monroy Jr jmonroy@netcom.com Zebra Research /386BSD/device-drivers /fd /qic /clock /documentation ___________________________________________________________________________
