Try Dawson posted a note about the Scientific Linux mailing list on July 1, 2011. I am posting part of his note here because I see some new "faces" who probably have not read it. Also for those who have been on the list for a while, this is a reminder.
Akemi =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ from Troy Dawson [email protected] to SL users <[email protected]> date Fri, Jul 1, 2011 at 6:51 AM Hello, The scientific-linux-users mailing list has always been a place that people could go to for technical help. It is supposed to have fairly low traffic, and it has had that for quite a while. I know that we have recently had an influx of new SL users, and so it is expected that the technical questions and answer go up. But we have also had a very high upswing of *frivolous* emails. (snip) This mailling list is for people to bring questions about Scientific Linux, and hopefully they will get answers. =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ There was a comment by Steven Haigh who suggested using the SL forums: I would also suggest that people wanting to continue the whole posting style debate or just general things not specifically related to SL do so on the unofficial forums. Here is a good start: http://scientificlinuxforum.org/index.php?showforum=7 -- Steven Haigh =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ And a follow-up by John H. Outlan who oversees the forums: That's fine. But any rudeness will result in a ban. That's why we are there in the first place. Just kill 'em with kindness ;)
