Well that's odd. I wonder what it's about? Splitting the list into what? Two with different themes? One Moderated and one Unmoderated? If the latter, that's a perilous course. One sees a lot of "twin" lists and such that are one sterile and stereotyped, the other totally overrun with tards. Because once upon a time, half or more of the people on the original list who took an interest in keeping it alive /without/ censorship bailed, and those who stayed behind were gradually overwhelmed. When the means to eliminate a public voice by direct force are not practicable, death by a thousand paper cuts may get the job done. Splitting an online forum may be a decisive move in that direction, or harmless and productive, depending the situation. As someone already pointed out, there is already a cryptography list, which seems to provide more or less what any advocates for moderation could ask for. People have been talking about the CPunks list charter. I have not seen it. What Sovereign signed it, and what powers does the Crown delegate to us, for what tribute in return? Just curious. Will post a message to this same thread that enlarges on "my" input to the "public" conversation.
