So now the question arises, what is the possibility of creating a
freebsd-newbies-questions list?

-questions is great, but it has three major drawbacks:

A) people subscribing to -questions to get answers to complicated
question on L,U,and A, don't want to see the list plugged with questions
on how to mount DOS floppies.

B) people wanting to know how to mount DOS floppies don't want to know
about the intricacies of L, U and A.

C) the message volume in -questions is extremely high.

Just a thought...

David
