Might I recommend filtering out messages which include "SCO" or a
variety of related words? Filtering out people (myself likely included,
as I boringly reflect on "beauracracy at the W3C") whose attitude you
don't like?
I don't feel obligated to read every word of xml-dev, and I have a fair
number of filters. Both of these tactics reduce my blood pressure
substantially. Okay, fine, I'm still cranky, but then I (mis?)read the
first reply I ever got here as calling me a bozo.
