Well, we have reasonably good ops coverage, but it still disrupts the channel when: - Someone joins, spews a spam link and leaves. Sure, we can ban them from coming back, but doesn't help that everyone has seen this link. - Someone comes in looking for a fight, and we have to talk with them and watch them derail the help others are getting for a few minutes before showing them the door. When these people never appear in the channel, the people there can go on and get support and not get distracted/sidetracked/derailed. > Fedora as is all about the community and i dont think that we should > build a barrier between us and potential contributors. Well, should allow non subscribed people to post to our mailing lists from any address? How about asking the forum folks to allow anonymous postings and not require people to make accounts? :) anonymous is fine in some respects, but anonymous + large audience/our forum is not always a good thing. kevin
