My initial concern was related to what you are seeing now. Mailing list participation is very relaxed. What is likely to happen is some day a user will have cause to send a message and won't be able to, because they don't know what is going on or why the list does not work like most lists they interact with. I am not sure it is wise to speak for those that are not present, because whether someone responds or not does not tell you anything about their opinion. Respectfully, R0b0t1
