Thanks for the context. I'm currently being lowkey harassed off-list by
Alexander, who is insisting:

- you're being untruthful, he only used the T2 issue tracker to "report
  some issues"

- he has been UNFAIRLY blocked on the issue tracker

- "Rene" cannot be reached for communication, I assume via email

- "never the less i wanted to hear from Linux community about current
  situation with X server"

My conclusion is, you are very correct. What an annoying state of affairs=
=2E

Yes, Alexander, it is wrong. This is not "the Linux community". This
isn't even a user group at all -- that would instead be
[email protected]

You are sending unsolicited email that expressly violates the purpose of
this list (and others). That is "wrong".
