We try to be fair and consistent in our rules for the list and our 
requests to abide by the rules for the list.

We may well miss messages where people discuss things that aren't 
allowed according to the list rules and/or may not have time to respond 
(and deal with the flood of cries that inevitably result when we ask 
people to discuss topics elsewhere).  So sometimes we may not say 
something--and in some cases it may be just a random mention without any 
elaboration that doesn't result in any discussion such that a reply 
would only bring more attention to the topic, so we may choose not to 
reply.  I only replied when I saw within this thread 2 mentions of 
software and one of hardware that we don't want discussed here.

If we're really causing you that much concern over your rights or you 
truly believe we're limiting your discussion unfairly, please feel free 
to start your own forum/mailing list/Usenet group/... and discuss 
whatever you like.  You may have a right to freedom of speech, but for 
some topics you're going to have to provide your own soap box on which 
to make that speech.  :)
