Re: Regarding the splitting up of mailing lists



There is another way to do this, that nobody has mentioned yet.

We could do away with chatter on the mailing list by running our
own news server on the KLUG box.  Keep the mailing list just for
announcements (maybe restrict it), and start our own newsgroup(s)
to talk about Linux.

I personally find a newsgroup easier to read than a mailing list
because you can get a list of messages sorted by thread, and nuke
threads that are not of interest.  (like going to Gateway! :)

Questions, comments, flames . . .  ?
