Automated Informational Message about gnu.tools
Please be aware that this email responds to a rougue organization
that undermines GNU and illegally violates the GNU Trademark.
social-contract-at-gnu.tools is designed to troll GNU mailing lists
and to destroy the fundemental fabric the the GNU mission. Everyone
is asked to refrain from any cooperation from this rougue organization
until it comes in line with GNU policy.
Thank You
