Re: What to include and exclude on this list?

I am in the minority here but I would prefer that posts to this list would be 
mac related only. There is a list for iDevices. I like to come to the 
MacVisionaries list when I have questions or want to learn about the Mac. I do 
believe that if the discussion includes the phone but is still related to the 
mac than it is OK in my book. For example, if someone has a question on how to 
eject their iPhone from iTunes, or how to perform an encrypted backup of their 
iPad in iTunes, or even, how do I get my pictures off of my iPhone and onto my 
Mac. I realize this could be a gray area but I would personally still prefer 
that the macVisionaries list would keep the topics tethered to the Mac and it’s 
operating system.It’s really not that different than discussing windows and 
VMWare fusion as it relates to the Mac. However, it would be inappropriate for 
a discussion to occur how to use Open Book in windows.

Now, where would the appleTV fit in? I don’t know, would that be for the iPhone 
discussion list since it is more closely related to the iOS operating system? 
The apple TV is definitely not a Mac though.

I can't see anything that precludes you're asking about OS X on this list. All 
you have to do is ask your question and sit back and wait for the answers to 
flood in. Just because others have questions about I was devices doesn't cause 
you any harm or discomfort. Allow others to do as we have always done and use 
this list in a more democratic and open way.
