I agree with Jeff.  While I understand this general list can become a bit 
overwhelming for the CentOS Staff, we all must remember that this is a GENERAL 
list.  All questions, from the novice to the expert should be welcome.  This 
list is not only a way to get problems resolved, but a very effective learning 
tool for all users.  Let's remember why we're here.  To support and learn from 
our fellow CentOS users/admins.

I believe creating another list is a mistake.  Delegate a full-time moderator 
if you feel overwhelmed by the various threads created on this list, but a 
second list will only encourage cross-posting.

Lets not go the way of the DJB lists and become intolerant of general, but 
relevant conversations.
