Absolutely, and I haven't disputed that, nor did I state that "only men"
or "only women" can submit patches to this list.
I am including my title as part of the name (like some others do - like
"Dr", "Prof" etc) for the reasons I indicated in my previous reply.
Besides, I used the word "indicative" in my response above, so I am not
saying with 100% certainty what my gender or sexual belief/orientation
is - one way or another.
Now that we cleared this little nugget, can we move along please as the
netdev forum isn't the appropriate place to discuss genders, name titles
or sexual orientation - something I had no intention of doing (apologies
to all who had to put up with this little diversion), but I felt I was
dragged into this by your good self and Mr Hemminger. Thank you.
