I feel it is reasonable to ask posters to exercise self-restraint in preserving the value of this list. We will stray, as is human. (I'm as guilty as anyone, there. (Of straying.)) In such cases, a polite, friendly reminder is appropriate. We should all respect each other. While we don't have a formal topic policy for this list, I do see a consensus pattern in the meta-topic discussions that have gone on here. If I had to codify it: (1) FOSS is always on-topic. (2) Other topics may be introduced, provided they can reasonably be seen as being of interest to the membership[1]. (3) Excessive/repetitive discussion is unwanted. The more towards #2 a given topic falls, the quicker "excessive" will be reached.
