The very reason for a mailing list is to enable exchange of ideas.It also serves the purpose of providing people with a source of help/information in our chosen area of Linux.Without a mix of new n old - how will the newbies learn? If you make a list of things that people are worried about, its basically about: 1) Posts irrelevant to the list purpose 2) Posts not following the posting guidelines(top posting/line length etc) Think carefully- and you'll realise that these problems cannot be eliminated by splitting the list along any parameter. For eg, You can have a Developer list..what happens when a newbie developer joins? (he promptly violates top-posting/line length guides) I'm surprised at the level of intolerance here. Nobody protests 'Commercial' marked mails looking for people - but this guy's post for a job gets jeers. Spare a thought for the guy's need -he surely must be desperate if he's posting to a list like this. I agree that there is a need for some order in our list - but i dont think we're going about it in the right way. You talk about segregating lists -who decides whether you are fit to join a list or not? I firmly believe this issue is being blown out of proportion..and hope people will start to get back to the business of linuxing... regds, kishor __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
