[linux-audio-user] question about off-topic email

hi all, i know that music theory is off-topic for this list. generally, how tolerated are off-topics posts on this list? i've been experimenting with some new theory i've learned and wanted to know why something sounds terrible. if this list wants to be totally on-topic (which is understandable), can someone recommend a flame-free mailing list for people who want to ask questions about jazz theory? my teacher doesn't have an email address, and i'd like to get an answer before my next lesson. :) sorry for asking, but i'm very new to this list and don't know the group dynamic yet. pete -- Fingerprint: B9F1 6CF3 47C4 7CD8 D33E 70A9 A3B9 1945 67EA 951D
