Guys, this is unnecessary.  He asked a legitimate questions, even if it *was* 
offtopic.  The -project list was created only a few days ago.  We've had -dev 
for years.  Changes are not going to happen overnight, or even in a week.  It'll 
take some time, and require some education on our part to point people (devs and 
users alike) to the right lists.  Yelling at them, or otherwise cursing (even if 
it was sarcasm) is not gonna get the job done.

Let's try to be cordial about it, k?  Besides, I saw this neat little blurb 
looking at debian's ML CoC:

* Do not use foul language; besides, some people receive the lists via packet 
radio, where swearing is illegal.

* Try not to flame; it is not polite.


So yeah, stop swearing before the authorities come after us for swearing over 
packet radio! :P
