Of about 300 messages since June 1, I would say over half the messages
were related to questions about documented or easily solvable problems by
new users.  Of the rest, most of it was related to wishing for new
features in blackbox.  A very small number of messages were really
development related.  There have actually been a abnormally large number
of patches sent to the list recently, but messages related to the actual
development or testing of blackbox are still a very small minority of
total traffic.  Perhaps this does not warrant a list split, but its
something to think about.  Unfortunately, these are not the good old days
when blackbox users were unix literate and capable of making good bug
reports.
