Hi John; Yes good point -- But with an efficient e-mail client like mutt it's trivial to wade through a high volume list, in my opinion. ;-D BTW this list isn't that high volume compared to some social media. Still, I think my point about USERs being impacted still stands; The announcement should go to the USERs list as well! Too much specificity gives the results seen here; most missed the announcement. But if one needs to sign up for yet another list than so be it. <sigh> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
