RE: what is BAARF?

The Web Site given to us by Cary, www.baarf.com, indicates that a spokesperson, similar to that of the Iraqi Information Minister, is being looked for.

Thus, to forward the harmony of the organization, I nominate the following people for consideration

1. Gaja - Always a good spokesperson and we can have fun with him
2. Mogens - Could use his sarcasm to benefit the US audience.
3. Rachel "Super Babe" Carmichael - No explanation needed

Thank You

According to http://www.baarf.com/

Battle Against Any Raid F

BAARF was invented by James Morle on Wednesday the 4th of June, 2003, in the Grange hotel outside Birmingham while having a beer or two with Mogens Nørgaard.

On the following day - Thursday the 5th of June, which happens to be the Danish national holiday celebrating our constitution - the Battle Agaist Any Raid Five initiative was announced jointly by James and Mogens in front of the UK Oracle User Group UNIX Special Interest Group meeting at the Grange hotel.

Both announcers were careful to sport the "Enough is Enough" look (including arms folded across the chest) while delivering the message to about 80 delegates.

It's important to note, that RAID-3, -4, and -5 are all included in the initiative, so the F in BAARF both stands for Five, Four, and ...err... Free.
