I'd even go one step further saying than most people care about gnome and gnome apps, and not about one's cats and the other's culinar niceties. There are too many posts everyday on gnome, as highlighted by a few persons in this thread. I don't think limiting access would be of any help, but maybe it's time to (somewhat) focus the editorial line or our planet, for instance by only showing posts tagged "gnome" by their writers. As an alternative, we could even have two planets: one about gnome, and one about peoples. Because despite Gnome is people, I think that for most people, Planet Gnome is primarily about Gnome. _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
