No. I don't agree. Many of us are on quite a few mailing lists to
keep up with developments in different areas. 10-15 messages a day
is way too much considering the signal to noise ratio.
This list is for discussion of the Blackdown port of the Java
language to the Linux operation system. There are better lists
elsewhere for generic Java issues. Please use them.
If you don't know if it is a Java generic or Java-Linux problem,
this list should not be your first stop.

Zero messages of signal is FAR better then 5 messages of noise.
Sorry to sound like a jerk, but please use this list only for what
it was designed for.
Thanks
