<sniped lots of stuff that I didn't bother to read, please keep mails
short, people don't have time to read essays>

   Can you remember the page number holding the policy or the date you
   received the policy from the FSF/GNU lot ?. I guess not.

What policy first of all?  You seem not to understand that chattr is
_not_ a GNU project.  It might be licensed under the GPL, but that
does not make it a GNU project. 

Just like Linux being GPL'ed doesn't mean that it is a GNU project.
To be a GNU project you have to assign copyright to the FSF. You can
read more about it at: http://www.gnu.org/evaluation/evaluation.html

   Is there a principle against withholding details from FSF mailing
   lists?.

Yes, since withholding information makes it impossible to help
people.


And next time, please keep your mail a bit shorter, I surely do not
have the time to read a long essay about totally unreleated subjects.
