Cant help associating Slackware 11, when it comes out, with the
jingle of Oceans 11 and The Rat Pack. It sure would be a hot
event if we could get a Banquet going at Bally's Las Vegas for
November Comdex 2005 and the 12th anniversary of The Distro.

Maybe we could get PV to attend, as the well deserved person to be
honored at the get-together. At least it could be a great drunk
nerdy event and get some press coverage as well, because of Comdex.

What the hell lets party

Sure, maybe we can dig up Dino, Frank, Sammy and the rest and have a real
time to remember.

I suspect you'd have more luck doing the above.

And while you're at it, good luck with putting together Comdex
2005, as KeyMedia cancelled it this year as well.

Pay his airfare on Hooters Air, and he'll make it for sure.

The signature is only 4 lines, doophus. The PGP signature is something
else, and obviously you're not smart enough to use PGP software to
verify anything. Since you lack the braincells required, why not jump
off of USENET, eh?

The pgp signature is part of the signature. That's why they call it
the pgp _signature._ If it was something else it wouldn't be called
pgp _signature._

As for me being "smart enough" to use pgp, I used it for over a year
as you would know if you weren't a helpless newbie. Pgp is easy to
setup for most of us. Those of you who think it is difficult to
setup consider it's use to be some kind of badge of honour. The
rest of us know it as pretentious silliness from those who seek
approval.

cordially, as always,

rm

Sorry, it's the first day for me here, but I think the subject is not
about "signatures more than 4 lines longer". I was looking around for
some info about the next Slackware version and look what I found, a
couple of moroons that argue about stupid things. Open a new subject
about this argue if you really need it.
Sorry, but...

bye,

Just about every thread that contains anything non-technical that
unreasonable people can disagree on always deteriorates into dog-howling
contest.

Sahel, if you want info, go to the Linuxquestions.org Slack forum. If you
want debate, flames, and to be insulted, stay and bay at the moon with the
others in this pack of wild dogs.

My bet is that Slackware 11 comes out in early Sept. with 2.6.12 and KDE 3.4
as 'standard'.... and I'll really go out on a limb and predict that P.V.
incorporates a dependency-checking package manager into the distro proper
(not extra) for the first time.

No one really knows. 11.0 or 10.2 will be ready whenever it's ready,
and my guess is we've got a long way to go.

Please don't judge this newsgroup by the quality nor quantity of rm's
posts. A few quick links should be all that's needed to display how
truelly deranged this person is.

Some of his posting history here:
http://tinyurl.com/create.php
http://tinyurl.com/84glj
http://tinyurl.com/8qcqs

rm has been trolling usenet like this for more than a decade. Just look
at the age on these posts:

rm has many aliases, Roger Maynard being one of the most common. He's
been hanging around here for two or three years now, just generally
making a nuisance of himself. People like him are best ignored. I
suggest you put him in your newsreader's scorefile so you aren't ever
bothered with his posts.

P.S. Note that he sometimes impersonates me, so if you see something
posted by a +Alan Hicks+ and it doesn't sound like me, then odds are it
wasn't me.

He already did, it's called the user.
