Excluding those groups from the front page (I mean first page of
www.lugnet.com) would be a nice thing (providing that they would still
be accessible from the links at the light blue field, as it is now) and
I can't imagine a thing that could be effected badly from this change.

Yup, they'll still be available by direct down-clicking into the groups
from the light blue band at the top.  And they'll still be accessible from
the "traffic report" page.


For the jambalaya posts, I think most probably there is nothing
interesting in a jambalaya message for the others so it would be nice to
exclude them, too. Actually, I remember that I was annoyed when I saw
them in .general several times (I can withstand being annoyed rather
well, by the way).

OK, thanks for the input.  Definitely leaning toward filtering those out
too from the top page.  Let's try that and see how it goes...
