No I have no specific link, because I have never needed to create a list.

I am saying, that I require that people asking for new lists care about the subject matter of the new list and are going to be active participants and can be counted on to craft a productive list culture in the new list. The people currently having the noisy discussion in fedora-list could make a request for a fedora-policy-debate-list and I'd have a much easier time following up on that request, because it would be coming from the people who want to use the list. If the people currently in the discussion are having it in fedora-list because its the most subscribed list and are doing it there specifically to increase the changes of having a lot of people see their opinions... creating a separate list won't solve the trolling problem. The issue of it being on-topic or off-topic for fedora-list is orthogonal to whether we should create separate list for the discussion. Someone who actually wants to use the dedicated list should be making the request. -jef -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
