Troll Re: Red Hat to Stop Distributions (was-> Re: rtems-4.6pre5building first time WITH Ada)

(To the RTEMS community at large.  Below is my response to Ralf's posting.  I originally sent it from an account which is not subscribed to the RTEMS mailing list.  Just want to make it clear to everyone my intent was not malicious or commercial.)


I would appreciate if you do not block me for "trolling" (whatever that is)!  It's not like I am posting everyday.  I have been sitting watching this news list for probably a year now and have probably posted less than 10 times.

Maybe I should have put a little verbiage in explaining this might be pertinent to those using Red Hat (at my last job I was trying to RTEMS under Red Hat Linux).  Given the original content of this thread and the thread someone posted looking for a "Slick Red Hat Tool" (Chris Sparks on Monday 10 Nov @ 1:18pm), I think planning on what platforms are available and tool compatibility is important.

My apologies for not explaining fully!

Don

Jeff, Joel,

Please block and ban this guy from all lists immediately. I am not
willing to tolerate this kind of trolling on any RTEMS list
