I understand this. I was concerned because I had heard from the very
few list members, whom I have the good fortune of knowing in person,
that the general opinion about me had turned negative due to my
'ill-behaviour' on the list. Since I did not understand what my
mistakes were, and apprehensive of the fact that the list
administrators might be contemplating action against me, I thought I
would check with you.

Your advice is well taken and appreciated.

I have high regard for some of the members of linuxers at mm.glug-bom.org
and hopefully such a situation would not arise in the future.

Rest assured. I do.
