Summary: Reply to mailing list proposal

[Is this a bug or such? I only receive first lines...]

		The main argument (for me) against mailing lists
	is that they are invisible for the net. If I don't know
	they exist, I may miss very interesting discussions.
	Further, if all interesting discussions are to be replaced
	to mailing lists, the newsgroups will become really unbear-
	able. Finally, it seems to be a sort of "leave the sinking
	ship" mentality. Since my first proposal (keyword selection)
	seems to be rejected (response nihil until now), I propose
	net.{motts|singles|anygroup}.only. Anybody posting to such
	a group declares by doing so to be a member of whatever is
	appropiate. How many garbage would be left in net.motts.only?

								Biep.
	P.S.: Let's build net.religion.christian[.only],
	to build a place for christians. Why does only ".jewish"
	exist?
