I have to agree. The current level of posting is too academic and  
definitely much too verbose for my taste.

I'd like to remind Carlos and Reiner that this mailing list isn't  
their personal legal philosophy club, and that most discussions are  
outside of the scope of the goal of this mailing list.

There's nothing wrong with discussions on pirate ideology, but I  
frankly don't see how discussions about the minor points about the  
European Charter of Human Rights is going to advance the cause of  
Pirate Parties internationally.

I'd like to suggest that Carlos and Reiner, if you like to have these  
long discussions about minor points of law, to move these discussions  
into private e-mail, and only post here if there is some relevant news  
from your respective countries, of if there is something you feel  
merits wider discussion.

And when you do post on this list, *please*, be brief. Not everybody  
has the patience to read the equivalent of 20 pages of legalistic  
discussions every day just in case you happen to say something  
interesting.
