So I take it that no one looked at the comp.databases.ibm-db2 mentioned? Some poor guy was just trying to announce some new PEAR DB functionality and got flamed to hell by these people. The numerous flaming responses were totally revolting. I hope the open-source community will forever have nothing to do with DB2 nor anyone involved with it....this was disgusting.

I can't find a description for the group immediately, but i can understand that most people in that group find the announcement off-topic... And yes, on the usenet you have a bigger chance to get flamed in that case...
