While many times interesting, I must say that the off-topic posts are getting a bit much. It is hard to draw distinct lines sometimes when, for example, issues of law cross over into issues of intellectual and technological subject that apply to Linux/FS/OSS. However, I think most of us know when a topic is "on" or "off". One could also argue that, assuming a "OT:" tag in the subject line, the thread could just be ignored. While true, too many "OT" emails and the purpose of the list is diluted or even defeated. So, I have started a discussion among the Steering Committee to see if we want to crank up a plug-misc or plug-whatever list to handle "non-linux" traffic. In the mean time, I, as one PLUG member, vote it is time we get back to discussing PLUG/Linux/FS/OSS stuff here in this list. Also in the meantime, if someone has a preferred venue (list, forum, etc.) for these sorts of discussions, please, point us to it and those interested can join up.
