Like Sue indicated previously, action speaks louder than words. I would encourage everyone to send email to and ask politely if the name could be changed to freebsd-newbies-chat. IMHO, deleting the list isn't the answer. This list is and has been a valuable resource for newbies. Let's join forces and make damn sure it stays that way.
