It's not a forum, the major option for moderation is to block people or put them on moderation (which is quite time consuming). They can tell us to drop it, but if you want to ask them to ask then better to email the admin address rather than the whole list. To be honest though you could just ignore it. There are lots of threads I don't read on here because they're not relevant to me either. Actually, the thread was originally about an issue with fedora documentation. There were two other problems with that particular page, a bug has been filed, it'll get changed at release. The ongoing discussion, if it's not causing real upset, keeps people coming back. -- imalone http://ibmalone.blogspot.co.uk -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
