[oclug] [OT] Programming/Routing problem

[Francis Pinteric]

This is a perfect example of what I complain about when people label
their Subjects with [OT]. This is perfectly On Topic for this group,
and yet the author has labelled it "Off Topic."

Programming is on topic.
System and other configuration relating to Linux systems is on topic.
Open Source and it's implications is on topic.
Linux job and business opportunities is on topic.
Everything I say is on topic :-) (groan from the audience)
Interfacing Linux (or anything) to Microsoft anything is OFF topic.
Giving advice to Microsofters other than dumping the OS is OFF topic.

While the labelling idea is a good idea, can't we just be a little
more critical of what we think is on- or off-topic?
