I think the centos-offtopic list should also be centos related, but not so strict postings as the current list is.
Perhaps a better split would be centos-tech for "on topic" stuff specifically about the OS and its packages, and something like centos-misc for everything else. And perhaps a centos-advocacy for stuff like the griping (whether justified or not) of the last few months, and for talking about rival distros. (This mirrors the way the comp.os.linux newsgroups are split.)
That sounds like a good idea to me Ken.

I consider the hardware threads on-topic insofar as they're about system requirements for running the OS. Getting hardware to work with Linux has always been an important issue. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
