[wellylug] \"People\'s Choice Community Member of the Year\"

[Jamie Baddeley]

For what it's worth your emails are ok with me Karin.

As to you all you other grumpy buggers, give the girl a break!

Linux was built on community, and as far as I can tell what Karin's
emails were all about is just that, building community events.

If I was sending out identical email for something within the scope of
WellyLug, there is no chance that I'd be accused of sending spam.

Just because it's not directly relevant to some of you doesn't make it
spam. Welcome to belonging to a mailing list.

Now go out and enjoy the sunshine or something..

sheesh!
