Lots of abuse, and now paranoia?

I don't own the list, Aleph One does. AFAIK, the list is completely open and 
unfiltered in any way.

As I have said before, I am not prepared to put the energy into reading 
Sergey's abusive nonsense and I have a filter on my  personal emailer that 
does not allow anything from him in (though it does not apply any filtersing 
to outbound stuff). Applying a  filter is not something I did lightly. In 
over 20 years in the business have never done this before and hope to never 
be moved to do it again. 

Perhaps this filtering is causing some loss of feedback, but I think there's 
probably better feedback coming from the rest of the YAFFSers that are more 
constructive in their approach. Bottom line for me is that I am not prepared 
to pander to Sergey's outbursts for the few bits of useful feedback.

If someone else wants to screen Sergey's stuff and repost the useful content I 
am willing to read that. Otherwise, I don't think the signal to noise ratio 
is high enough to warrant reading.

I continue to try work the problem of the mtd interface to resolve it the 
correct way, rather than the ugly hack way. Unfortunately this is taking 
longer than expected (over 2 months now!) so it is probably worth putting the 
ugly hack into the CVS for now. If someone better equipped with test hardware 
etc would like to do this, I would not mind at all is someone else works the 
problem.
