debian-user needs a charter!



I just came back from a week's work, and I've discovered that the nature
of debian-user has changed dramatically.  That's unfortunate, since it
was previously an excellent forum for solving user problems.  The 
signal-to-noise ratio was superb.

Now it has been hijacked for use as a batteground for a flame-war.  
Not good.

Bruce, could you please write up something simple - perhaps stating that
debian-user is a "user support" list only, and that from now on,
political discussions should go to debian-debate? (or some other list).  
Also, name-calling, profanity, and baiting is just not acceptable.

Please, make it clear that debian-user is not an anarchy like 'usenet'. 
We don't have to tolerate inappropriate behaviour (like carrying on
political flamewars).

Cheers,

 - Jim
