Hello everyone. I joined this list to learn more about IDS and maybe compile a database of rules to use with a IDS. But since I joined 90 of what I have seen on this list is introductions. Now dont get me wrong I enjoy reading about other people, but I do not see how is this relevant at all. I check my mail once a day to see that out of 10 new messages in this list 7 or 8 are introductions maybe from people like me that will simple be lurking trying to learn a bit more, while more expirenced people discuess. There should really be a second mailing list for the introductions or they should be mailed to the list admin for him to put up for ftp or http. In any case we are going no where and wasting bandwith and disk space. Just my 2 cents. a1
