WordPress package

[Phil Pinkerton]

I see no further technical relevance to this conversation can someone
please terminate it.

I enjoy and depend on information from this list, this particular
conversation no longer provides any useful information nor is it in the
least bit entertaining.

We should not  be forced to  filter the address of those unable to
restrain themselves as they do at times provide useful
advice/information. Geeks do not have to behave immaturely.

Thanks
