[olug] take this poll

[Bill Brush]

This is JMO, and it's all I'm going to say about the matter.

*  This list, ultimately, is not a democracy.  I've adminned several lists
and when it all boils down to it, the list owner, is the list owner.

*  The list owner decided that there will be periodic (daily) Unix tips.
It makes no difference if he subscribes to them personally and then
forwards them, or has them sent direct to the list.  That is his option.

*   While the list members can offer feedback to the list owner it is
option whether he acts on it.

*  I personally think it's a good method of stimulating conversation and I
applaud the decision.  The hardest thing about keeping a mailing list
active is finding new topics.  The OLUG list as had periods where there
have been no posts for days, which makes it seem "dead" to people who might
join during those intervals.
