You're right, I beat Joey Schulze (the other Joey) by 12 days at proposing a debian-offtopic list (#425439 and #427218). As I just said above, I think (most of) the OT threads are fun and they are also bringing the community together. A debian-offtopic list would be the best way of having all those offtopic discussions inside the debian project, but without disturbing the "normal" d-u (or d-d, ... , whatever) traffic (and no, debian-curiosa is *not* suited). ... looking at the "Etch + USB Modem -- Supported?" thread I'm guessing you guys (at least you and Ron) are also missing those.
