The need of a new list for Omega user will soon become mandatory considering
the bashing pace of this one.
Your idea will not work , because Omega bashers want to post on a list where
they can be read by normal users.
They will certainly avoid the official parallel bashing list, because it will
not meet their need of audience.
I have had an other idea, that is more effective:
What we need is:
1) A new list. This is easy to create and several hosting sites exist.
A digest version is also possible.
2) A moderated list, but with a moderator.
3) A simple rule: Bashing not allowed here more than a limit level for a given
subject.
For example, lets say that an imaginary contributor (Adam Early, for example)
posts three times the same thread
(TS4 yk2 not compliant , want my patch now):
-One post in an information.
-Two posts is acceptable.
-Three is symptomatic of a bashing issue.
-4 th post: Adam is REMOVED from the list for one month.
Next bashing serie posting: removed for 2 months, then 4, then 8, then 16 (
after, yk2 is solved).
4) To allow a continuity with the current Omega List, contributors may want to
post on both lists, and reply on both lists.
They will filter out the Omega2 List and continue to read Omega List.
When they feel a bashing level thay cannot support, they read the Omega2
archive and filter out Omega List, and set Omega2 as their current list.
5) From that first point, and after a few weeks or months, one list will be
recognized by the kind of user that it targets.
Omega products people that are interested will often read Omega2 List .
People interested on bashing will stay on Omega list, that will become
impossible to read.
6) Later, either Omega List dies, and this is not a problem because Omega
List2 is still here.
Or Omega List becomes what it should be: Different that what it currently is.
In both cases, the users are the winners.
For the moment, we are all losers (of our time).
Just my 2.5 eurocents.
