I can not do more than disagree. If you don't like a thread, killfile it. But using censorship, banning, blocking threads you/someone don't like, just for the reason *you* don't find them useful is in my eyes just wrong and is some kind of censorship and should not be done in an open project like debian.
But that is my personal mindset I am coming from. If such a mindset is outdated nowadays and not wanted anymore I offer to resign as a listmaster. Alex - Debian Listmaster
