We would like to add some comments on Eric's complaints about the french Node ADministrators. 1- When we received Eric's mail on the first EARN survey, (which as he told himself was open to anybody who knows what LISTSERV stand for) we forwarded it to the NAD-F (French Node Adminstrators) list because we knew that they would be interested. We would like also to precise that Eric's mail have been sent in its totality and we only add a small comment recommanding them to answer because it was important. 2- Some of them answered they were not EARN users, but anybody can make a mistake or can not understand correctly a question. Some others complained about the fact that the survey was a VM exec but more than 50% of the nodes are not VM. Moreover, we think that when you send an open survey to people you have accept the answers, the comments and the mistakes. 3- When we read the two mails Eric sent to NAD-F about French people answers we decided to remove him from this list and to change it to "send=private" because we DO NOT WANT any polemic on this list. Moreover, Eric is not a french Node ADministrator and we don't afford his nasty comments. We hope that everything is clear now, Dominique and Dominique (EARN-France permanent team)
