Well, there I'm forced to disagree. See below.

So, if you agree that making individual lugnet.market groups by theme fill all
the same needs as changing the charters of the discussion groups to allow
marketing messages, AND you understand that making individual lugnet.market
groups for each theme has the added benefit of NOT asking Todd to do something
he has SPECIFICALLY said he doesn't want to do...
The idea is unnecessary. Or, at the very least, debating it is.
