Apart from a very few people on the list who are raising questions about the mailing list, I have not come across anyone who is raising the issue.
Well, it is upto the mailing list members to decide how the list should work. If majority feels that it should be more open, let it be. If all the filters and moderation bits are removed and the list becomes completely open, I will be the happiest person as I will not have to take any blames/bashing from anyone for things that I never did, and/or was nowhere related to the activities. I have been facing that blaming/bashing for more than 10 years now so as to keep the integrity, confidentiality of the things. Wishing you all a Very Happy New Year. Regards -Sudhanwa hi, as i have already said, this is an issue of "swatantra" and "swairachar". one has to draw a line between, and the moderater does the same. he/she is like a head of the joint family [probably a very big joint family]. every family member has a right to put is opinion, debate on it politely, but the ultimate decision is of the family head. asking for freedom without any strings [or in your language ,openness] leads to a keos. if the women ask for the unlimited freedom of dressing, movement etc. the men will ask their freedom for harrasment [you know what i mean]. jayant _______________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List
