[Deletia: Approximately 165 lines/7200 characters of "Rules"
and explanatory hints, most written in the
obnoxiousness-maximized IRC-f*ck-you style, for calling a
Bay Area Debian users group meeting.]
Observation: If the author of that piece is so interested in
expository writing, perhaps his time would be better spent
writing some useful documentation for Debian, which IMO, it
sorely lacks.
Question: If we convert B.A.D.'s rules for calling a meeting
to U.F.O.'s much simplified and shorter, but eminently more
useful rules for calling a meeting, is that "compression"?
