CentOS - Jun 2005 - Separate list for political/philosophical discussion

Hi,

	How about creating another mailing list to let people vent themselves?
 It would make it easier for everyone, since technical/troubleshooting
issues and opinions target different people.

This messages is a test as well.  I couldn't write to the list through
gmane so I corrected the address with gmane admin.  Hope this works.

Regards,

That's how most projects handle it.  Because invariably, people will start
breaking things down into marketing, legal and other meta-discussions.
And I'm just the type of person that deals with them on a daily basis,
so I have my viewpoints.

Rule of thumb on what is on-topic for that last should default to the project
maintainers, and we should respect their viewpoints.

Sorry, I meant "list" instead of "last."

As always, I believe in a meritocracy.
And that means those who are on the project have final say.
And those who don't should respect their wishes.

With that said, I am not on the project, so I would respect what the
project maintainers say.
