linux-audio-user:

I don't see a list owner or a terms of use policy for this list on what 
I presume are the appropriate pages:

    http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user

    http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo


Who is the list owner?


What is the policy regarding personal attacks, etc.?


TIA,

David
