	chat: is for non-technical discussions and even personal matters
		of FreeBSD personalities....of instance, say, jordan
		going skiiing and being out of touch for a couple days

	hackers: is for technical discussions....but frequently spill
		over info a variety of other areas that belong either
		in chat or some "pie-in-hte-sky" mailing list about
		ideas that "wouldn't it be nice if *you* implemented"

	i dont understand how your proposal is different than the present
	situation. i the issue ifs really one of self-disciple
	rather than creating yet-another-mailing-list.
