On the other hand, I, for example, don't subscribe to chat, as I already
wade though current, stable, hackers, hardware, isp, smp, advocacy 
(plus mozilla and announce, but those don't generate much mail) each day.
What happens when you want to say something to people who aren't
listening?  :)  Perhaps we need two levels of FreeBSD-chat type lists, one
for things closer related to FreeBSD, or more technical, or one where you
post the first message(s) in a thread, and then move to the other, giving
an introduction without the extra cruft that always seems to come as a
thread gets older.....

Just thinking out loud here....

Later......						<Doug>
