</div>FWIW, your proposal is more in line with what I thought debian-science<br>
was about when I joined. I haven't, personally, minded seeing packaging<br>
related discussions go by but I do think the two types of discussions<br>
would benefit from having their own venues.<br></blockquote><div>+1<br>Benefit is we also get updates about packages and that is really useful for us. <br>As Linux user cannot remain only user, need to do system admin level work also for scientific packages.<br>
Second thing is, after making 2 separate list will there be increase in the user level queries? At present there are hardly user related queries.<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
