[D-community-offtopic] [ANN] New mailing list for offtopic stuff

[Andrei Popescu]

Hello,

As some of you might recall I have been pushing for quite some time for 
a debian-offtopic list (#425439, #427218).

It seems I have managed to convince Holger Levsen, responsible for the 
www.debian-community.org project, that such a list would be beneficial 
for the community around Debian and he was kind enough to host such a 
list with the d-community project on alioth.debian.org

The new list is d-community-offtopic at lists.alioth.debian.org[1]. At the 
moment it is open for posting by anyone[2] and you are welcome to move 
any discussions to that list which are OT on debian-user or other Debian 
lists (remember the "Sponge Bob" and "growing broccoli" threads?).

This however does not mean that the list is a place for endless 
flamewars and trolling. Please be nice to each other :)

[1] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/d-community-offtopic
[2] this might change if the spam becomes unbearable.

Regards,
Andrei
P.S. Discussing whether such a list makes sense or not is OT on 
debian-user, which is why I set Reply-To: accordingly ;)
