[discuss] Should the 1net discussion be split into two (or more) lists?

Tue Jan 21 09:32:46 UTC 2014

FWIW, I have given up. I read only emails from /1net from a handful of
people and only when the subject seems relevant, which at this point is
rare. I'm glad that so many people find it of interest to post so much ;)
