Greetings All,
Yes this is 'sub-optimal' (thanks Nick for that wonderful comment :))
for me as well, I don't take issue with Linux related articles (I have
found some very useful/helpful) but im only on this list not the -talk
list, my expectations (which could be wrong) are technical and
occasionally political discussions of Linux topics and problems/ideas
people have.
I would suspect that all these url's could be placed on the linuxsa
page, or as suggested RSS feed, wiki, or sent to the -talk list, or
something...? Or continue to be sent here, if that's the common
consensus..?
They are not wasted space URL's like some places, and they are certainly
useful and interesting, but they are just not things I want to be having
to delete from my LinuxSA Inbox (in only get 20MB mailbox, *sniff*).
Maybe instead of stopping them completely a new home can be found for
them? RSS feed seems like a good start?
Regards,
Michael
PS apologies to those who do not like top posting, but it's the way we
work, and how my client is configured, and its my preference as well.
Free choice and all that ;P
