Richard, I was the one who specifically stated in my original message
(Message-ID: <16008.29099.61020.356901@mail.linux-delhi.org>):

<quote>
If anyone wants to tell me about the name I use for the operating
system, please do so in private mail
</quote>

I did NOT use the term Linux in that message.  I did NOT question any
policies in that message.  Anyone who wanted to discuss my usage of a
term could have safely sent me a private message and spared the list
this whole pointless thread.

By electing to make a response to that quote on this list you
automatically extended the mandate of the list to include policy
discussions.

</nitpick>
