I second that idea. Mainly because it is difficult to understand which context people are talking in... most people don't remember to say which distro they are using, and frankly I don't think they should have to... And it does make a big difference. Maybe keep this list as a distro-neutral

I remove your second! Please dont split the list. People tend to post to all the current OM lists just so those who arn't subscribed to one can be sure to get a copy - and those who are subscribed to all the lists (that is those you can find) end up getting multiple posts. Enough with splitters

I agree that a single list is more conducive to synergies. Unfortunately, the traffic has grown a lot, and it is virtualy impossible to filter on the client side (except by threading), because you cannot make up any resilient criteria. You can't build a filter without consistently classifying
