[tdf-moderators] Please stay ontopic

Hello,

during the last days, we have seen a huge amount of discussions, mostly 
offtopic. I'd like to remind everyone about the purpose of this mailing 
list - discussion amongst list moderators for topics specifically 
concerning list moderation, nothing else.

I have seen several people unsubscribing from this list and writing to 
me in private that they left because of the sheer amount of offtopic 
discussions. Moderators unsubscribing from this list renders its purpose 
useless.

As much as I love that the community also discusses other topics, even 
non-LibreOffice ones, I really have to ask to stay ontopic on the lists.

In the future, I see no other choice than putting those on forced 
moderation who will continously write offtopic e-mails. I really dislike 
doing so, but in the light of the recent events, this seems to be my 
only option. Losing people who are distracted and upset because of 
offtopic discussions is poison for the community.

Note that I am not specifically targetting any person or e-mail, it's 
the overall events of the last days that lead to this e-mail.

Please do *NOT* comment this e-mail, simply think about what I am asking.

Thank you for your understanding,
Florian
