Right. This is an unmoderated list of volunteers. Many of whom can't get subscription/unsubscription instructions right, despite the fact that they're printed on every damned post.... > but I'd like to get the suggestion out there: > > I really enjoy reading the technical questions about "How do I do X", > "Here's how to do X", and even "Here's my opinion about X technology or > technique". I much less enjoy reading the posts about "Getting Linux > adopted", "Is Linux good for consumers", or other "soft issues". Ignore them. The threads on completely off-topic issues (previously: rail, opium, and currently media acccuracy) simply shouldn't be on d-u. I've held my tongue this time, but the primary participants are very close to hitting my killfile. Again: there _is_ debian-curiosa. Many mailers have scoring or rating facilities. You might want to highlight posts by technically adept users. I do this mentally myself. Peace. -- Karsten M.
