But, if I am asking for forking with reasons, shouldn't you too give reasons in support of your views? Doesn't it make sense? Your mail is useful input in a 'poll', but doesn't help arrive at any conclusions in this thread/debate.
Ok lets see if we can put things clearly ... you suggest that we split the list into the equivalent of LIP, LIH and LIG. You also seem to claim this is _not_ based on whether a person is a newbie or an expert (by expert, I assume a person who knows how to use mailing lists, newsgroups. FAQs and all other resources like documentation effectively.)
But the way I see it, splitting will only create three more places where clueless individuals will continue posting mails in crappy format. How does your suggestion of splitting the list help? If you only want the list to be separated in order to separate technical help, general posts and developers then I don't oppose it, although I don't see how it will be useful given the very small active membership on this list.
Also sad to see that some members continue to top-post inspite of a similar discussion earlier this year when things were made as clear as can be about quoting and replying.
Sameer.
