Hi,
I don't see too much harm in asking little more generic
questions. One of our purpose is to learn from someone
else problems. The more good and meaningful problems we
have, the better.
It is really difficult to classify the question before you know
the answer: is it Java - Linux, Linux or Java problem.
Currently our traffic is not bad at all. We have about 10 - 15
messages per day. This is not a lot comparing for example with
Java for Media Framework listserver - more than 30 per day.
Less than five usually means that the listserver is dying.
