Who exactly complained about noise before you mentioned it? In fact, what |
| 13 |
is this noise? This list has far less off-topic traffic than most and, |
| 14 |
coincidentally, it's exactly the same amoutn whether accessed via an IMAP |
| 15 |
or NNTP server. |

Of course they are welcome. What is not welcome, and this applies to most |
| 22 |
walks of life, not only this list, is people who enter an established |
| 23 |
community and then proceed to tell everyone they are doing it wrong, over |
| 24 |
and over again. Proposing a change to see the reaction is one thing, to |
| 25 |
keep banging on it when no one else is supporting your viewpoint is |
| 26 |
annoying at best. |
