Hello,
As some of you might recall I have been pushing for quite some time for
a debian-offtopic list (#425439, #427218).
It seems I have managed to convince Holger Levsen, responsible for the
www.debian-community.org project, that such a list would be beneficial
for the community around Debian and he was kind enough to host such a
list with the d-community project on alioth.debian.org
The new list is d-community-offtopic@lists.alioth.debian.org[1]. At the
moment it is open for posting by anyone[2] and you are welcome to move
any discussions to that list which are OT on debian-user or other Debian
lists (remember the "Sponge Bob" and "growing broccoli" threads?).
This however does not mean that the list is a place for endless
flamewars and trolling. Please be nice to each other :)
[1] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/d-community-offtopic
[2] this might change if the spam becomes unbearable.
Regards,
Andrei
P.S. Discussing whether such a list makes sense or not is OT on
debian-user, which is why I set Reply-To: accordingly ;)
