[PROPOSAL] close poi-users
Hi all,
We have a "users" list primarily because everyone else has one.
Secondly I though that the traffic would be unbearable. However, I
think at this point the best thing for the POI community is to close the
users list and have everything go through the poi-dev list.
Disadvantage:
* Confusion "Where's the Users' list?"
* Traffic for "passive users"
* Some users won't necessarily transfer to the dev list
Advantage:
* Passive users are forced to become active
* Users will be more easily made aware of development issues
* Less cross posting
* More supportive of a cohesive community
What do you all think?
