[Gnu-arch-users] ATTN: three policy statements about reply-to merging

(1) There's nothing to discuss if the goal is to change 
    the settings for the list.  While I, like bob, prefer
    munging, there's solid arguments against it, and the 
    recommended practice by our host, Savannah, is to not
    munge.   Period.


(2) Drop it, please.   If you have something surprisingly
    persuasive to say, send it to me privately.   If 
    traffic on this topic persists through wednesday, I have
    already promised to start killing subject lines.


(3) I really hope to not have to impose filters on the list.  That's
    dumb and ugly and boring.  I'd like to believe that as a
    community, we're above the need for such things.  I.e., if on
    thursday, there's a post that has verboten words in the subject,
    I'd hope it'd be hella funny, or hella successful at changing the
    topic.  Eclecticism (?) is quite welcome on gnu-arch-users; "[OT]"
    in the subject line is a polite way to do it; tedium on dead
    topics just forces my hand in a boring way.
