So far there are about 5 people besides myself that disagree. I have setup an egroups list. I am waiting until wednesday to see if I hear from the listmaster, otherwise I am going live with egroups. >> In theory this list is a mixed bag of Advocacy and Questions. > >*shrugs* I think the existing lists provide the forum needed. >Jacques Vidrine / n@nectar.com / nectar@FreeBSD.org Do you use FreeBSD at your company? Specially if it is not an ISP? Haven't you had questions which were more along the lines of "what calendar software can I install"? This may have nothing to do with FreeBSD, but this may be the one break an individual has to get FreeBSD in the company. Perhaps she got a small box to "test" and if he can bring up applications which are highly used by the company he/she may be able to permanently get FreeBSD in the company. The other feeling that I have got from those who have answered is that they don't want to use existing lists because they are way too crowded with too many other types of messages. This list would allow us to have a place for THIS type of discussion only. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
