As long as you appear to make forward progress you're not likely to catch
too much grief. If, on the other hand, you posted 20 incorrectly
formatted messages, a single correctly formatted message that you bragged
about, and then 20 more incorrectly formatted messages you'd probably be
in for a beating. No, I'm not thinking about anyone in particular. Honest.

New FAQ rule: The no-flame policy doesn't apply to people who are no
longer on the list. Yeah, yeah, that's the ticket. :-)

These messages were posted a long time ago on a mailing list far, far away. The copyright to their contents probably lies with the original authors of the individual messages, but since they were published in an electronic forum that anyone could subscribe to, and the logs were available to subscribers and most likely non-subscribers as well, it's felt that re-publishing them here is a kind of public service.
