I think it is unfair and unfortunate that a very small number of people have set such a negative tone for this list. I think in general, this list is a valuable resource for users (and what I'm saying here should NOT in any way be construed as otherwise), but I agree with Adam's statement above and feel that something needs to be done to address those issues he's identified. Something being "politely ask users to use a professional form when writing to the list".
That has consistently failed.
Any more than that would have to include enforcement, which will likely do more harm than good.
I have no problem with "enforcement"; I'm on numerous 'enforced' lists and they all are more constructive than here. I've never seen enforcement do any harm. Anyway I'm probably signing off again, but it would be nice if someone could figure something out. Maybe create an opensuse-kde list for people who prefer-to-use-but-also-hate-KDE-yet-somehow-blame-openSUSE [!?!?!?!?, yea, it makes no sense]. Or maybe an opensuse-gnome list where GNOME uses can seek refuge and have civil discussions. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
