It's not a joke. This list was not created for discussions on how to avoid FSCK problems on servers that run all the time, debian-isp was created for that sort of thing. When an existing list doesn't fill a need then the best thing to do is to create a new list. If you get a debian-security-de list as I suggest then you can discuss things in German too, which should be a double benefit. > me to shut p on this issues, I have no problem with that.
