Dear members, I hope that I do not appear too invasive in the first day of my membership. I really like discussing.

Second, I propose, to not go into deep debates content-wise here, but
instead to move interesting topics as mentioned here to the main list
ox-en.
Well, my perspective is that not everyone on this list is on ox-en. In fact I would say the majority is not. So it would make more sense for interested people in ox-en to come here if they want to discuss issues.
And here is the official introduction to this mailing list you all
have received:
The mailing list
[1]journal oekonux.org
provides a common discussion forum for the organizational aspects of the
peer production journal.
The list language is English.
Everyone who is interested in this journal may subscribe here. Editors
have to subscribe to this mailing list. All postings to this mailing list
should relate to the journal. For more common discussions you are welcome
to use the list
[2]list-en oekonux.org
By default replies go back to the list. Access to the member list is
reserved for the members themselves. The list is archived in the Web under
[3]http://www.oekonux.org/journal/list/archive. Older postings can be
re-read there.

In the past we even created a new list ([jox-tech]) to move certain
traffic from here to there. Still people complain about too much
traffic, constantly.
I appreciate discussion about content. But *this* list has not been
created for such discussion. [ox-en], however, has been created for
exactly this purpose. Thus what is off-topic here is perfectly
on-topic there. Nowadays the traffic there is low but a lot of people
interested in such debates are there. See
http://www.oekonux.org/list-en/subscribe.html
for subscription information.
I think we should stick with what we once decided and stop changing
things all the time.
BTW: This is *not* meant as advertisement. However, I experienced this
clash about the purpose of a mailing list a couple of times in the
past and think the topic of a list should be clear and kept clear.
People join the mailing list because they are interested in the topic
of the mailing list. Off-topic postings are clearly an unfriendly act
and should be moved to a place where they are on-topic.

Stefan
