I don't have the full story of everything that happened but none of the post you pointed out are totally off topic. There seems to be some question about what you have said previously about XFS, which to me would seem on topic. I have forwarded your email to Christoph and the other prominent members of the XFS team and if they feel further action is warranted we can revisit the issue. Based on what you have sent I do not feel there is grounds for action. -Russell On 4/5/12 7:20 PM, Peter Grandi wrote: >> You must be joking!
