As far as I am concerned, Usenet died, unfortunately, about 15 years ago. I think you are insulting Google to say they are Usenet in disguise ;-) > I think you're describing Linux-IL here, so why not post it there anyway? Well, more or less - yes - I was thinking of a sister mailing list to Linux-IL, which will have a similar collection of people, but a different topic of discussion. I'm not sure how people feel about the linux-il list being "overtaken" by Android-specific discussions. In my opinion, as long as the discussion continues to be about development, about free software, and so on, it is fine, and I'm not opposed to Linux-il being official declared "Linux and Android". But I wonder if that's what everyone thinks. I'm also not sure what's the downside of opening a second list for Android. > I for one do not have a problem with Android questions appearing > here.

If I remember correctly, linux-il was founded in 1994. At the time, Linux's ubiquity was also yet to be seen ;-) -- Nadav Har'El | Monday, Jan 16 2012, n...@math.technion.ac.il |----------------------------------------- Phone +972-523-790466, ICQ 13349191 |I used to work in a pickle factory, until http://nadav.harel.org.il |I got canned. _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
