Hi! I enjoyed following the d...@suckless.org list. I'm not a C programmer but I enjoyed reading the fine comments people made about dwm code and patches to it. I also got a lot of hints about different kind of useful suckless software. It was easy to decide if I wanted to read or not the mails b

I try to answer extra-uriel-like-friendly. Why can't people stfu and do some work or try to learn how to filter mails instead of argueing about such needless crap. The old lists were mostly off-topic too. And especially the dwm-list was used to announce other suckless(-like) projects very often.

As much as I love dwm and suckless projects in general, I could really do without all the off-topic conversations by the same 10 people. If there will not be split suckless-dev/suckless-discussion lists I will be unsubscribing. I hate to miss all the good code and patches, but I also hate dealing
