Very sorry.  I confess, I have contributed to the problem.

Subject: [orca-list] IMPORTANT: Getting the list back on topic

Hey all.

As I think most of you know, I tend to be pretty tolerant of the occasional off-topic post. After all, there 
are not mailing lists for every last subtopic related to technology for users who are blind or visually 
impaired.

As I think most of you also know, I tend to not be a hands-on moderator of this list. We all have our bad 
days. And usually misundertandings are worked out quickly -- or go off list.

That said, the discussion this past week has been rather surprising to me. This mailing list is normally a 
good way to get my attention -- and the attention of others -- to ask questions, make suggestions, and report 
bugs related to Orca. That hasn't been the case this past week.
To be perfectly honest, I've been deleting most of it unread. We need to decide what to do.

If it were just me, I'd just keep deleting messages and wait for things to go back to normal. But a couple of 
people have gotten in touch with me privately. As a result, this message is an official request that we all 
get this mailing list back on the topic of Orca. If it is not about Orca, please discuss it elsewhere.

Apologies for being the "bad guy" and thank you for your understanding.
