And you are sure this cannot be fixed by for example
* Getting people to put [JAVA] or [C] in the Subject
by gentle peer pressure (or beer bying if you forget)
* mandating [JAVA] or [C] in the Subject by a rule
in the list server
Alternatively, if we would set up those two lists 'virtual' and we
would make sure that all messages are crossposted; but WITH some
extra text in the header/footer or subject saying [j] [c] or whatever
which stands out clearly ?
I am not against splitting lists per-se. Just seeing if you think
it is really nessasry to split the forum.
