If you took that argument to its logical conclusion then anything that
is of interest to some of the members is ok. As well as solaris,
windows, and a whole host of other OS, many non-computing related
activities could also be included in such a broad definition of whats on
topic. I think its pretty obvious that this is not a desirable scenario
- there is a very good reason to limit discussion to linux and "closely
related" topics. There are other forums for other topics.
