[Call-for-Action] Indigogo Campaign for Putting "Emma Watson Getting Interviewed for a Tech Job" under CC-by

[Orna Agmon Ben-Yehuda]

Shlomi,
it is very simple. There are posting guidelines to the list: "Linux-related
questions and discussions. No newbie questions (use gnubies-il instead)."*
Anything outside this very strict definition is offtopic, and promoting
something unsolicited in bulk is spam. In particular, this list is not
"Shlomi's projects" or "Shlomi getting attention".

Mailing lists are a push-mode media, as opposed to pull-mode (such as
forums). When there is a lot of noise, people unsubscribe. When people
unsubscribe, the community is diminished. And then you have nobody to ask
when you really have a linux issue.

Hence, you are chopping the branch on which you are sitting. Spitting in
the well you drink from. Killing the mailing list you read.
