Bug reports and idle chatter do not belong on the gentoo-dev mailing list; discussion about a wide-ranging change to the tree probably does not belong on Bugzilla. Different fora will also have different standards of behaviour – a joke that is perfectly acceptable on IRC will be taken differently when made on a mailing list. |

I forgot exactly how many threads this spawned but if you're referring |
| 36 |
to the concern I raised, I felt it was largely to put rest. I didn't |
| 37 |
like the idea of trying to strongly enforce concise language but now |
| 38 |
that I see that is intended as a guideline, I'm not so worried. |
