For the record, I was the one who stated that INW is not TriLUG's
dumping ground.  Ian also characterizes how things were expressed.
I have no problem with "This doesn't belong here, check out the
InternetWorkers list".  That's perfectly fine.  Instead, what the person
in question was trying to do was move an already started thread
over to INW by CCing INW and asking everyone on the trilug list
to drop it.  I have a problem with this because it brings the INW (who
are not a strict subset of the TriLUG group) into the middle of a
thread and makes people wonder what the heck is up.

So, short summary: Starting up new threads on INW, ok.  Moving
threads from TriLUG to INW, not ok, at least to me.  Others are
more than welcome to disagree with me.

Cheers,
Tanner
