Hey Everyone,<br><br>If I understand correctly, the main concern is lack of interest and that questions would end up going un-answered. I don't think this is the case because:<br><ol><li>There are 80-90 people on #xubuntu at all times (ie. This new ml will appeal to them)
<br></li><li>There are a handful of people who want to get involved and do so by helping answering questions on IRC. I feel that these individuals would most certainly subscribe to this new ml as well.</li><li>Just because we split this ml, doesn't mean that developers who would be willing to help answer questions could not subscribe to the new ml.
</li><li>Kubuntu and Ubuntu both have -users ml (and I think Edubuntu might as well) - Better to have one then not have one.</li><li>You currently have to subscriber to -devel and there is a lot of traffic on -devel that isn't applicable to users which results in them un-subscribing or ignoring mail from this list.
