So, Sean, can you create some sublists now? (e.g. openmoko-dev, openmoko-freedom) People have floated the idea quite a bit, but this isn't a float . . . this is a direct request from a relatively new member of the community.
<br><br>While I do believe that the issues of freedom and licensing are germane to the community, I'm truly concerned that we're getting to a point where people who should be working together to make this project one of the greatest achievements in open source history are instead alienating other contributors with inane bickering.
<br><br>All due respect to the people who've been arguing these (seriously) very important issues, but do you really think that a 3-5 e-mail rebuttal sequence about the respective creation dates of the BSD and GNU licenses is helping the community? Even if you do, surely you'd agree that it'd be useful to take such detailed discussions about licensing to some other non-general area.
<br><br>Anyway, PLEASE let's create some sublists so that we don't screw up something with the potential to make a real impact.<br><br>Here's hoping someone's listening,<br>Pius<br>
