Clearly shows your intent. None of this is relevant to this list (except it clearly shows we have strong personal disagreements).
My intent is to stop someone from cross posting the same matter over multiple lists. Nothing more nothing less. I cannot recall any 'strong personal disagreements' that still exists with you on this list for that matter.
IIRC you have posted this same info ditto to FSF-Friends, FSUG-Bangalore, ILUG-Bombay and one of the Malayalam l1on group lists. I use gmail to access all these lists and it's personally very annoying for me to re-read your repeated posts on the same topic from all these above mentioned lists.
I see Fred's mail from multiple mails too, that is how it is supposed to work.
I don't see Fred's mails to multiple lists I am subscribed to any longer. Please don't drag Fred into this discussion and attempt to divert attention. He has stopped cross posting after repeated objections from the community (notably Kenneth).
The only practical solution I can see is that you can post it to any one of the lists and request any one your friends to post it to one other list. That way at least it is not theoretically cross posting.
And it is not practically cross posting either. The practical solution would be to keep your personal disagreement with me personal and not drag the list into it.
If I have personal disagreements with you (I don't have any at this point time at least), I will discuss it at the appropriate forum as I have done in the past.
I can't help it, you have to suffer it :-)
Clearly shows your apathy to people who have difference of opinion on your behavior on this list but that is understandable given the present cross posting company that you have cultivated over a period of time.
ps: I fully understand the difference between cross posting and multi posting.
and yet you wanted to take a shot at me.
I wanted to tell you that I clearly know the difference between cleverly disguised habitual cross postings indulged by a group of people (including you on multiple lists) and a genuine multi post. In this case I am convinced that you were indeed cross posting. Kindly refrain from doing that again.
Regards,
