Re: [META] Use of the list for non-Debian matters

[jomsteve@uwaterloo.ca (Max Stevens)]

Although the creation of a 'Debian-guru' list would have the same
effect as creating a 'Debian-newbie' list.  Everybody would ask their
questions on the guru list since
	a.  All the gurus would be reading it (obviously)
	b.  None of the gurus would bother reading the regular list
	anymore (or at least not in any detail)
	c.  Everybody thinks their question is really difficult and needs
	a guru to answer it.

          Max is a sagittarius but Max's family owns a taurus.
                  This is the dichotomy that is Max.
