[NFBCS] Potential for a spin-off list

While I can't say this isn't possible, it would not be my first choice.

I would want to talk to the powers that be at NFB in Computer Science, but I
am not sure yet another list is the solution. 

People should be encouraged to ask on another list, GUI-Talk was intended
for this purpose.

We could moderate NFBCS, and reject off-topic questions, although some will
end up being border-line. Some people have complex computer questions that
only a person more involved in computers would know the answer to.

Moderating the list means delays, and more work for somebody.

Hi,

When I joined NFBCS, it mostly looked like it was going to be for discussion
of comp-sci related topics. It feels more and more these days that it's just
a basic tech support list. Is there a chance in splitting off so we can stay
semi-topical and allow people to still get their questions about which cd
burning programs to use answered, for example?

Thanks,
