I thing that a "mainly on-topic or on related topics" policy is maintained
here. I appreciate that we're mainly focusing on OM-gear, but I also
appreciate being able to ask advices on films, development hereof when I
accidentially "pull" a HP5 to 125 ISO  etc. And also, I think it's great
to be able to have a little "chatter" in between, as well as being updated
when something happens in peoples life.

To me, it's not necessarilly more on-topic to know that person X bought Y
lens for his camera, than it is to know that the wife of person Z (whom I
know from the list) has given birth to a new family member (just as an
example).

Yeah, there are off-topic postings. So be it. As long as the tone is nice
and that the balance is as it is now, I would be sad to see the more
"personal" postings disappear.

Just my opinion
