I haven't read the list in days (slammed at work), so there were 180+ unread emails in it, for me. Only one (1) of them was "political": I.e.: Referenced the adoption of LibréOffice by an organization. The only other non-tech-support related threads I found were, ironically, those started by you: "See you later, I'm gone," and this one. As for the "Hey, lookit who just adopted open document formats!": I've seen that kind of thing on many project mailing lists in which I've participated, over the years. > > For the average user, the spectacle offered by this list can be > pretty off-putting. Just saying... You need to get out more. Or, then again, perhaps not ;) This list, other than the activities by our resident troll (whose name shall not be mentioned), is pleasantly free of rancor. And, I would note, appears to be populated by an exceedingly friendly, helpful group of people. (Save the aforementioned troll, who I have permanently bit-bucketed.)
