Some of us folks are trying to be topical in cola.  Still, it needs
a fairly robust killfile, because it gets a lot of political spam.

(For a while, I was posting build reports in there as new

One could argue that Linux advocacy isn't all that necessary
anymore, since it has already all but taken over the planet.
(Except for the desktop, of course -- that is still a Windows world.)
