(well, maybe i will have to simply improve my typing style ;) And theres another thing i wanted to express for quite some time now: Marcel, thanks a lot for all the hard work you're putting into this. sometimes i have the impression that you never actually sleep, as you replay to mailings on that list usually only 5 minutes after they arrived - no difference if that message arrived like 3 o'clock in the morning or 15:00 o'clock. additionally i had the chance to attend one of your presentations this years linux tag. that was one of the best i heard! long story short: thanks! ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Sybase ASE Linux Express Edition - download now for FREE LinuxWorld Reader's Choice Award Winner for best database on Linux. http://ads.osdn.com/?ad_id=5588&alloc_id=12065&op=click _______________________________________________ Bluez-users mailing list Bluez-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bluez-users
