While I am usually a fan of organization, and I do try on irc to keep things in their place, however in this case, I think another channel is simply managing human behavior with a technical solution, and I'm not generally a fan of doing that. There is a tremendous amount of wisdom across a fairly broad spectrum on this list, and most if not all folks on this list are members of multiple other lists as well. I don't want to see the knowledge and expertise in this channel diluted across other centos related venues simply because a few folks don't like the noise level. What I'd like to see is channel members asking detailed questions showing thought, research, depth and manners with respect to sane email clients and mailing list netiquette. I'd like to see well thought out responses from experienced individuals showing both a willingness to help, and an expert grasp of whatever topic is at hand. I'd like to see the light email banter back and forth to keep the channel light, but not enough to drive the low bandwidth users away. I'd also like to see list members display some courtesy and not allow the lighter threads to span 100's of posts, with replies to stop replying. In short, no I don't favor splitting up the list. I want sanity on the list. Of course, I also want world peace and a pony. Just my $0.02. -- During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act. George Orwell
