Off-Topic Posts

[Kent West <westk@acu.edu>]

Historically this list has been tolerant of off-topic threads, likely 
because such threads have tended to be short-lived.

However, the off-topic posters (and I have been guilty myself) seem to 
have taken this to mean that this list is appropriate for any and all 
discussions by users of Debian. I would doubt that was the original 
intent of the spirit of the phrase "Help and discussion among users of 
Debian".

I would urge the off-topic posters to return to the spirit of the 
phrase, and please wind down your off-topic posts, and then strive to 
keep your posts a bit closer to Debian-related topics.

Thanks!
