Hi,
The Eyes Free list is simply uncontrollable at times because of lack
of moderation, and some boringly repetitive comments made by some
members.
Anyways, I would vote for no merge. This list is working very well and
I enjoy reading and learning about new developments in NVDA with
Windows 10.
Even if there is a new group, the administration policies should only
be that laid out by Joseph and his team.
All the same, I am replying to a little old thread, and I am unsure if
I can still establish an accurate corelation between the two or three
related threads covering subsequent events that occurred after this
proposal.
Clarifications still appreciated...
Thanks.

Hi all,
I like this list because we have good discussions and it is low trafic. I
say not merging would be better.

Hi,

I will not join a list maheen is owner of. In the last two weeks alone I
have seen him blow up on two different lists I am on. I hope this list
stays
but if the morjar happens I won't be able to be their.

I have no issue in principal of merging the lists.
However, if we do this we will have to split things.
the win10 list will have to cover generic stuff, on 10 setting up,
upgrading, etc.
If you have nvda that can be covered here to I guess or on the nvda list.
Tutorials for general use or that could be used for general use could be
posted somewhere.
However there is a lot of jaws and other stuff, and I do think if there is
a
constant thread for a lot of stuff, that has an interest it should be
subbed
off the main group so it can be handled.
Ofcause anything on settings should stay and maybe a few tutorials and
such
but I was out for a few days and I got over 500 messages so something
needs
to be done with traffic.
The other issue is maheen.
No he isn't bad right now, but the past may never die.
He has attacked several places repeatedly till banned on at least 3
occasions and while I think he is getting better and getting my trust
some
will be really against it as I was when he first put the list up.
On the other thing, it may be better to keep this list or insider stuff
though maybe we could merge.

Hi all,

Due to a recent incident involving the owner of another Windows 10
list
and with the owner possibly removing himself from the WinTen list on
Groups.IO, it felt best to ask Groups.IO if there would be a change of
ownership. If this happens (me becoming the owner of the Windows 10 for
the
blind), I'd like to propose that we merge with the Grups.IO list over
there.

Some of the advantages of this move include:

. Setting up subgroups (or focus groups): We can have a focus
group for NVDA users using Windows 10 (note that you must be a member of
the
master list to join the focus group).

. Another focus group could be set up for those running Windows
Insider builds.

. By centralizing WinTen discussions, a potential user don't
have
to dig through various mailing lists to find answers to his or her
questions.

I'd like to receive comments regarding this proposal, and if you say
yes, when we should merge so I can send out a notice saying this list
will
be closed. Thanks (please ask me offlist as to the background of this
merger
proposal).

Cheers,

Joseph
