Warn about removing the last admin user is pure madness: It would be better.

That means the people who actually know what they're doing still have the freedom to do it, but the people who don't know what they're doing won't do it accidentally.

For a new user, unfamiliar with the command-line, there's absolutely no reason to not have at least one admin user.]]> Thu, 31 Jul 2008 15:30:16 +0000 Sat, 16 Aug 2008 03:03:38 +0000
