As place where to discuss about links, I would suggest
irc://irc.freenode.net/#ubuntu-offtopic . You need IRC client like
XChat to use that link.

Have you checked is there a bug report about that? If there isn't,
maybe you should report it.

You know, that sounds "somewhat" funny, from someone who
doesn't trim quotes and has a GPG signature, which is longer
than the text it accompanies… For me, this GPG stuff is more
annoying than HTML.
Just sayin'.

Could you tell me what I should have trimmed? I sometimes don't know
whether I should or shouldn't include something in quotes.
This mailing list doesn't even give any options how PGP signature can
be included, see bug #996581 at Launchpad. INLINE works for me, so I
use it like I have told in one gpg comment. About that GPG comment, I
will continue following what I have told in it and not replying to
anything related to it.
I cannot affect what other people see or don't see as annoying.
Will someone now complain about hijacking thread? If yes, please fix
the subject line by yourself, because I don't know what I should put
in it.

The article is informing about Mozzila decision to stop support of
