There seems to be a starting consensus at [[WT:Canvas]] that if the
mailing list is a Foundation one with a public archive, and if the
initial email about the issue is worded neutrally (e.g. here is a
discussion that list members might be interested in), there shouldn't
be a problem.

And I assume all the ranting and raving that may follow - and which may
or may not be relevant to the initial topic - is just part of fulfilling
the email lists purpose??
