His concerns are very valid and he even raised them last week. All I can tell
Erik Jan is that the newsgroup used to be far more chaotic and its current
nature seems to be a repellent to those who come here to curse, to defame,
and to spread anti-Linux FUD. It seems evident that the level of abuse here
has gone down, which if anything, is /good/ news to Linux advocacy as a
whole. This newsgroup was never a tool for advocating Linux (I have only
been here since 2005). Look at the archives and see what I mean...
