In my experience at using FreeBSD, I've come to the conclusion that certain questions are so stupid (ie my own) that they need their own listserv. Maybe we should have -mindnumbing instead. Yet these questions need to be asked. Perhaps the listserv isn't supposed to have questions on it, but you really have to wonder why we don't have a questions listserv that tailors itself more toward the newer users. I really don't understand how the mission of this listserv could possibly aim towards regular conversation of newbies. If anything, this listserv should be a -remedial version of -questions. Removing this listserv doesn't serve any purpose at all. At least a refocus would do some good. Josh >From: "Jason C.
