I said "news.groups" not "newsgroups".  There is a tremendous difference --
"news.groups" is a newsgroup that you would have known had you read the
"Newsgroups" line above.  Please pay attention before replying.

As this is for some reason still crossposted to comp.unix.advocacy, which I
do read, I saw it...

As to your other comments, it may well be that on the public OpenBSD list,
Theo didn't  display a lot of unkindness.  I know he at least tried to on
the NetBSD lists and certainly did in private e-mail to me.  But I've
already said that and I don't feel that I should have to say it again.
