I against this change for several reasons. If you'd really want to separate "end-user support" from "general discussions on topics related to Fedora", then I'd recommend to add an additional "fedora-support-list" and to see how this works out. Also, do you expect such a change to improve the situation wrt. Linux veterans not participating on this list? I don't, because to "Linux veterans" the "non-technical issues" related to Linux often are more important/interesting than the "mere technical issues" (Remember: Using Linux also is a political statement) Ralf (Linux veteran) -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
