Well, if you are going to demand things, I'd suggest demanding a beach-side
cabana on a south seas island populated by charming people who love you and
only you.
I mean, if you have a general sense of all encompassing entitlement, then why
bother with nextGrex?
Or, if your sense of entitlement is more specific, you might provide us
with the reasons why you feel entitled to a beta account on NextGrex.

needed.

You're like one of the retarded kidnappers in "The Big Lebowski." You
seem to have forgotten that you have to have hostages before you can
start making demands.

That said, I don't see why any user who wants a NeXtGreX account can't have
one.
I specifically deserve one because I intend to help test it out and see all
sorts of neat things and all that sort of stuff, but I'm sure equally vague
and profoundly convincing artguments could found supporting any user's bid
to get a GreXedNex account.

No other users is bidding to get a GreXedNex account. Hmmm...but
speaking of bidding, cash might work.

Consider you NOT having to pay us for NextGreX testing our cash payment.
Unless you require a deposit.

THAT being said, it's either test NextGreX BEFORE it comes available, or AFTER
it is commonly available; which would be more embarassing for the bug
traquers.

Re. 9: Jan, when I heard about the move to NeXtGreX, I was hopeful. Not about
the new technology. Oh sure, I was excited about FrontTalk and OpenBSD and
all that. But that's not what I was hopeful about. I was hopeful that with
new technology would come a new culture. One in which the habits of the past
-- including GreX's famous elitism -- would be left behind. You, Jan,
however, have ruined any chance of that before NeXtGreX even opened. At least
with the first GreX you waited a while.

mfp, now that your delusions of NextGrex have been dashed, I think you should
leave all forms of grex and never return.

Read this closely: http://www.plausiblydeniable.com/opinion/gsf.html
You have a sad tendancy to insist on Geek Social Fallacy #1.
The idea that moving to new hardware would cause me to forget everything I
know about you is so bizarre it'd probably only rank as Geek Social Fallacy
#362.
In the real world, getting treated with respect has something to do with
treating other people with respect. You have a ways to go.

Sure. I'm immeasurably fond of you too. It's just the way you act that

What's mixed about your messages, janc, is that when I politely ask you for
the URL for NextGreX, you direct me to the UNIXpapA site that you own; BUT
just recently you brazenly announce the URL for grease.cyberspace.org, without
regards to human liability this may purport?! Really, you're becoming more
and more like your wife.

Oops. Thanks for the bug report. The grease.cyberspace.org URL was
supposed to be password protected until the system was ready for public
use, but I forgot to "AllowOverride AuthConfig" in /var/www/conf/
before. Anyway, it's working right now. I wasn't giving out the URL
because it would be rather pointless to give out a URL to a page you
can't access.
