Amen! While -dev and -users may be a little too sparse, perhaps adding a
-business list would be beneficial for discussing those types of issues.
However business-related issues are not so common at this point, so perhaps
a list devoted to NONTECHNICAL discussion (-nontech?) would be relevant?
I agree that list fragmentation is a royal pain in the ass, but perhaps it
is time to figure out just one more list to try and whittle down the
traffic on -users.
So far it seems like the proposed candidates for new lists are:
asterisk-newbies (perhaps a better word?)
asterisk-nontech
asterisk-biz
Any others as well? If we were to add another list, I *believe* we could
automatically subscribe everyone in -users to -whatever to help seed it a
bit.
The amount of mail on asterisk-users is more than even *I* can read in a
day, and my job is 100% asterisk. There probably is a justification for a
new list, but I think it is less the -biz list as much as much as the
-newbies. Keeping a business discussion on -users is probably quite
useful since often times a business discussion can involve technical
details of what Asterisk is capable of doing.
Thoughts?

I am not sure a newbies list would help all that much, all that would
happen is that they would cross post to both lists and we would get
everything twice.. What may be better would be either a better way to
search the list archive or a "new users FAQ", of course the FAQ option
requires that someone maintain it which is also a problem..
