Cut me some slack people.

Svante, I replied to Dave's email, not to yours. I did not remove any
quoted text purportedly from you. I did not respond to your response to
Dave.

Nor was your reply to Dave about network interface names new or novel.
Everyone knows Freedesktop.Org changed the names, via udev. It's not a
huge leap to consider a move from udev to eudev could change the names
back, or to something else. I didn't try to cut you out of the
conversation or foreshorten your 15 minutes of fame, and to the extent
that I did, I'm sorry.

If ONLY this were the worst black mark on my karma!

I'm sorry. I'll try to be more careful next time. I hope we can all
keep things proportional.
