let's all play "contradiction".

you're an intelligent person, please tell me where are the logical flaws
here:

both linux-il.

QUICK! where do you discuss borring driving arrangements, CDs for the
next demo-day, lecture halls for meetings, or look for volunteers for an
insta-party?

that's IGLU@egroups.

QUICK! Why is Ira wasting his time answering trolls on his limited free
time??

ahh, but IGLU discusses topics not covered by linux-il in the present,
nor in the near past. stuff about getting up and doing stuff
("ASIYAH"). so if it's a new list of topics, it's hardly a split, it's
an addition, now ain't it? the point being that we have traffic enough
about those topics to make it a seperate list. If the honorary Mr. Zak
doesn't/can't come to meetings, what interest would he find in our
useless ramblings there?

some basic stats: IGLU's mailing list exists now for two months, we are
nearing 300 posts in the archives, with 203 posts since February 1 it's
almost 10 posts per day. are you sure you want to merge it back into
linux-il?
