Thats ok I forgive you!
hardware is not really the location for this sort of thing anyway!

a better list would be -people_that_want_companys_to_do_stuff_so_there_
product_works_with_freebsd... unfortunately we dont have such a list...
anyway, when you made your post about killing the thread it was already
pretty much over, since we had worked out what could and needed to be done...

Im sorry to have been short tempered with you, but it really annoys me when
people say "take this to another list"... Especially when there is not really
an appropriate list in existence!

Try to be more tolerant of threads you feel are in the wrong list... I never
complain about such things... Unless someone starts asking windows questions
on the FreeBSD lists of cause ;)
If its roughly in line with the list (which this topic is, since its getting
support of hardware into stable) then just let it ride... Thats my feelings
anyway!

Have fun!
Kal.
