I have been a recipient for this mailing list for quite a while and it 
is not the first
time that I notice the foul language and the anger directed at newbie 
questions.

I am truly disappointed at such attitudes, unworthy of an otherwise fine 
piece of
software.

I am now considering unsubscribing from this list because of this.

Sincerely,

Jean-Luc
