Sigh. When we have non-technical discussion on debian-devel, people bitch and say "use another group" (thus the creation of debian-vote, -discuss, and innumerable other groups). When we then use those groups, people bitch because they miss the discussion. I sometimes think it's the same people arguing both ways (not implying that Hamish is doing this). Screw it. I say we go back to three non-moderated, non-announce groups: -user, -devel, and -private. And -private may NOT be used just because it's low-volume. Learn how to deal with the volume (procmail and threaded mail reader go a long way). Keep -announce, -devel-announce, and -security-announce: the audiences are sufficiently disting. Get rid of everything else. Steve
