well when balance is all of the problem i got a suggestion:
fred a.m. and co: please collect your news and links and simply release them ONLY ONCE PER MONTH via this list. sort of "miller press news" then all the complaints will certainly calm down.
That would be fine, but after a month, most of the stuff isn't interesting or relevent... lx-talk definately works better in that the news (although not on SLE) is still revelent when published.
BUT: (biigg but here!) when it comes to balance concerning discussions ON these mails, i'd be for moving THESE discussions to a different ml.
But again, I can truely second that the (I call them so here) "miller'n co-mails" packed into ONE mail a month would be enough information on this s.e. list.
Like I said, personally at least, after a month I've probably already read all of the stuff Fred posts - it's more the immediate value of it. And since Fred is already posting on lx-talk, we are all set. :-)

grrrr... then let it be once per WEEK. but: i will #not# register for the whole lx.talk bunch when I only want to read fred's lovely SHORT mails. so i yet need fred's mails... ok. then let's say once per WEEK -- *º¤., ¸¸,.¤º*¨¨¨*¤ =Oliver@home= *º¤., ¸¸,.¤º*¨¨*¤ Also, wie war das denn nochmal? Da wir jetzt durch eine untaktisch kluge Fuegung eingesehen haben, dass das mit der Zusammendehnung ein echter Griff ins Klo war, sehen wir keinen weiteren Grund zur Veranlassung.
