Well, if you're looking for a music technology
oriented list specifically
for off-topic stuff (including politics to a certain degree, although not
too much) Ampfea.org has "The Music Bar":
My opinion? ...Off topic stuff makes mailing lists entertaining enough to
read... So long as there's not a lot of it and so long as it stays
constrained to single thread. :} It's sort of essential to a *healthy*
community dynamic and helps to give things a sense of context. Restrictions
on it can be just as damaging as censorship is anywhere else.
Apparently it helps you understand just who you're talking to as well.

Think there's ever been a post that wasn't?
