%>I don't think that the above message of yours has anything to do with LaTeX 3
%>or 2e. I think you are grossly abusing this list if you use it for crying
%>about the expertise of your support staff related to Word for anything.
%>Messages like this should go by private channels or via lists devoted to that
%>topic, not via a list of highly specialized interest.
%>
%>
%>Please consult your support staff how to reply privately to mail which you got
%>via discussion glists. It can and SHOULD be done!!

I hope the same condemnation applies to Gabriel and Sebastian, who raised
this topic?
Mike
