[luau] Ladies and Gentlemen

May I make a small suggestion....how about you folks consider removing a
little of the ego, and if stuff is donated, it can be donated to the UH ICS
department Advanced Network Computing Lab. I'm housing the server as it is,
and can write a donation letter for tax purposes. This way donations are
final, and the donors gets something nice at tax time.

Unless UH decides to kick my behind out the door, I plan on supporting this
group as much as possible. At the moment I have bandwidth to share, and DNS
entries to support the group. Warren is VERY talented, but in his youthful
enthusiasm sometimes forgets the 8th layer in the ISO model...the political
layer....please consider ending this flame war and let's find a middle
ground.  If my lab is middle ground then fine, I'll write some nice 2002
donation letters. If another suggestion is forthcoming, I'll support that.
This group is too valuable to the community to have confusion end it.

Whoever started this flame war, how about you take it up with whoever you're
mad at?

I'd like to start up something more interesting like maybe a discussion on
encrypted remote file systems like webdav or that new one based upon sftp
that was written up in this months Linux journal....???  What say you folks?
