        I'm on the freebsd-stable list to watch for actual problems
        that would keep me from installing the newest sources, but
        unfortunately most of it seems to be barely-on-topic chatting
        and arguing and other noise.

Barely on topic?  Yes.  Noise?  Well it depends on your definition.   
 Recent
discussions about the best 100Mb/s cards and the not-so-subtle   
differences
between a '*' in the password file vs a '#',  I, and I'm sure many others   
have
found very useful.

        Would it be possible to start a list specifically for known
        problems with the current -STABLE code, perhaps announce-style
        so that only FreeBSD developers with clue can post to it?

Surely this is where that stuff belongs but it would be a great pity for   
us mere
unix mortals to lose the "noise."  Perhaps there should be a   
FreeBSD-admins
list?

Cheers,
Martin
