This is a sincere request to all users.
Please take your personal differences of opinion or any other anything else you would like to call it , off the list. There are hundreds of other users whose mailboxes are being spammed of such unnecessary conversations that are just used to suffice personal grudges and egos.
Please take this conversation off the list with the necessary people.
Look at where it has gone from rms in iit which has passed on the 6th by the way

Outsiders are most welcome but not expected to shout, be rude and try to police the list, when the local members are not doing it too. Why spread unhappiness wherever we go?
please make yourself clear - are you proposing discrimination between local members and outsiders or not? Further, if you look at this thread I requested the person concerned to trim his posts *politely* several times before shouting.
Your way of requesting is many a times rude and incoherent. Instead of simply speaking clearly and explaining politely what you want, you will post irritating one liners after others' mails and only after some mails will you explain what you meant. By that time the damage is already done. There is no discrimination between local and outside members but if local members have to leave the list due to rude behavior of outsiders, then this is not right.
And as far as I am concerned, Mumbai is as much my city as yours - it is the financial capital of our country and I visit it fairly often (and have probably attended as many LUG meets as you have). We have had this local vs outsider nonsense on Chennai LUG too - please do not start it here.
Similarly there is some cordial etiquette expected from you too, especially when this is not your home list.
