Most of them were unfriendly insults by others! So please be fair and
don't blame me. You might count the useful friendly mails instead.
Btw. it's not only me who was abused without a reason.

When somebody asked regarding to the upgrade mtab issue it also caused a
flood of unneeded mails. Instead of posting a link to the latest news
http://www.archlinux.org/ on this list it seems to be netiquette to
insult users. It was the same with somebody asking regarding to
locale.sh, about people who do top posting etc. ... FWIW I got help
regarding to this thread from top posters :).

I experienced enough issues myself and several Linux audio users lists
are crowded with issues regarding to PA.

I'll replace PA by a dummy package, hence it won't cause trouble on my
machine. Thread closed!
