Good idea.

However many consider it polite not to change the location of the post without any warning. Since you posted to ONLY off-topic.debate, people who subscribe to dear-lego by mail, or even by nntp, didn’t see your post at all, and don’t know that you are moving the discussion, Further, people who read off-topic that way don’t necessarily have the context.
