good to know, thank you so much! this list though, is run by committee
as far as i can tell? 

and there is no general noise, chat, oss general tech type list? 
so i can chat and comment about intel 3d xpoint, etc here?
if there are many people from all over AU on this list will the

seemed so quiet...
