I agree that a free for all to use and post is a good
gesture, but then what
do we do to protect our freedom? Such mails do give me a
good laugh once in a while, but what mechanisms do we
have to discourage such behaviour in the first place?
Whatever the opinions and reasons, I feel at a time
slated for humungous growth in subscribers like this, one
must
<b>rethink</b>
The bottomline: We need to look at an overhaul.
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...
