True, but irrelevant. Study the charters of the various groups to learn what
the groups are for.
Once you veer off topic for a particular group, you should consider redirecting.
For example, although I am a member of MICHLUG, it is inappropriate to ask
about shopping opportunities while I am in NYC in the org.us.michlug group.
Also ineffective as my intended audience isn't likely to be there. Better to
use loc.us.ny.nyc...
For example, although I am a member of MICHLUG, it is inappropriate to carry
on a long conversation on the nuances of modeling switchyards in the org
hierarchy. Better to carry it out in .trains.
For example, although the SuperTrain show is vaguely train related, it is
inappropriate to carry out a long conversation about 93 iterations of a
layout design in .trains... that belongs in the ca.nalug group.
Keeping things on topic keeps things organized around here and helps us all
find information in the future without having to search all of LUGNET for
it. and that benefits all of us.
If you don't see the necessity of staying compartmentalised, at least
consider changing the subject line...
Hope that helps.
