Cross-posting is placing all the groups in the same header for the same 
message.  Multi-posting is separately composing and posting messages to 
different groups with substantially the same content.

 From what I've read in clj.gui, clj.programmer and clj.help, folks tend to 
forgive cross-posting.  Multi-posting, as the OP did with this thread and you 
yourself have done repeatedly with your multitudinous multiposts about your 
London conference, is the "sin that is unforgivable".
