I think Helen just wanted Thomas to complain to linuxworld.ru rather than
firebird-general. When people put incorrect things on their pages, it
cannot be considered mail bombing when users discovering this replies. I'm
sure any web page saying "former Liverpool star David Beckham" would get
lots of angry mails from Liverpool and Manchester United supporters alike,
but it would not be mail bombing. Likewise, I think it is appropriate to
notify linuxworld.ru when they incorrectly call Mozilla Firebird for
Firebird (Firebird is a database, Mozilla Firebird probably a web browser)
for those discovering this on www.linuxworld.ru rather than through reading
it on this list (I wouldn't have noticed unless Thomas said so, so I'm not
going to send such an email).
