That's what I exactly trying to do, ignoring the thread. But if someone
constantly creating a new thread about the same thing, then I cannot ignore
the thread -- except writing a script that ignores every thread created by
that person which I wanted to avoid since sometimes might be interested to
see the subject or might even be able to help. But if you created new threa=
d
every time you answered (which you did not), then now we would have several
threads by now like "Tiny bootloader, is it good or bad?", "AN310 is it goo=
d
for me?", "Is ZPL the best bootloader ever?" and then *after* all of these =
a
new one all in a sudden asking "Is there any way to upload new firmware
without a programmer". Still the same subject from the same OP (in this cas=
e
you, John), and you did it right to keep it in one thread, but I just can't
see the same approach by VG which makes it really difficult to follow up
things plus ignore or follow up the conversation if wanted.

Anyway, someone has to say it loud, but this is not how this mailing list
was working years before and not sure if this is the desired way.

BTW dumb questions are welcome by everyone, as long as the suggested
literature being read and the dumbness is not coming from laziness.
