Max,
despite the fact I'm lacking a lot of your responses, I really do
understand the fact that you're pissed about doing something but not
getting responses. And I really appreciate your work!
I wasn't aware of the fact that user/group rules have been discussed
in detail (I must have missed that topic somehow or it hasn't happened
in pf@). To your question, I do care about that topic, I'm able to to
beta tests and check things out. Also I do have the machines to check
things in a safe environment, if needed.
If you have something to checkout, I will be happy to check it out and
feed back to you (if you're talking to me... again, I haven't received
any responses for weeks from you). If you still care about user/group
based rules, keep me up to date (I'm not on current@) and I'll beta
test for you and give you any needed feed back.

team sitting on an island and the user base is far, far away of them.
